Iodine-mediated aminosulfonylation of alkenyl sulfonamides with sulfonyl hydrazides: synthesis of sulfonylmethyl piperidines, pyrrolidines and pyrazolines

Abstract

An aminosulfonylation of alkenyl sulfonamides was reported. Using iodine as the catalyst, TBHP as the oxidant, and sulfonyl hydrazides as the sulfonyl radical sources, a variety of sulfonylmethyl piperidines, pyrrolidines and pyrazolines were obtained in moderate to excellent yields.
