Catalytic Regioselective Sulfonylation of α-Chelatable Alcohols:  Scope and Mechanistic Insight

This paper describes a convenient protocol for the regioselective sulfonylation of α-chelatable alcohols. Typically, the reaction of α-heterosubstituted alcohols with 1 equiv of p-TsCl and 1 equiv of Et3N in the presence of 2 mol % of Bu2SnO leads to rapid, regioselective, and exclusive monotosylati...

Zusammenfassung:This paper describes a convenient protocol for the regioselective sulfonylation of α-chelatable alcohols. Typically, the reaction of α-heterosubstituted alcohols with 1 equiv of p-TsCl and 1 equiv of Et3N in the presence of 2 mol % of Bu2SnO leads to rapid, regioselective, and exclusive monotosylation. The pK a of the amine was correlated to the reaction rate. A plausible mechanism for this reaction has been proposed on the basis of 119Sn NMR studies.
