چکیده

The reduction of N-(p-fluorobenzenesulfonyl)phthalimide on polycrystalline gold and Au(111) was studied. Our key finding is the decomposition of the compound on the surface, leaving only sulfur behind. This was supported by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The modification leads to observation by STM of well-known as well as new phases for the S modified Au(111) surface.

The intriguing reaction of aromatic sulfonyl phthalimides with gold surfaces.

We report on a series of arene sulfonyl phthalimides which were prepared and used to modify polycrystalline gold and Au(111) gold surfaces. Three investigated compounds are the p-iodo-, the p-methoxy-, and the p-fluoro-benzenesulfonyl phthalimides. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies were used to characterize the modif...

Cu-Catalyzed Direct Amidation of Aromatic C–H Bonds: An Access to Arylamines

A Cu-catalyzed aromatic C-H amidation with phthalimide under oxygen as a terminal oxidant without using additional additives has been achieved. This reaction has the broad substrate scope and shows moderate to good yields in most cases. This method is complementary to the previously reported metal-catalyzed C-H amination systems.

play novel properties as materials. Although there are a variety of methods known for the preparation of sulfones, the majority of these processes feature associated limitations. For example, oxidation of the corresponding sulfide relies on functional-group compatibility with oxidizing agents and the availability of catalysts to promote selectivity for sulfone formation over sulfoxide formation...

Electrophilic activation of unsaturated systems: Applications to selective organic synthesis*

Selected examples from previous work on iodonium-triggered approaches for the functionalization of unsaturated systems, which summarize innovative transformations, are presented. This section is mostly focused on C–C bond-forming processes from alkynes that are directly bonded to relevant heteroatoms, such as iodine, silicon, or sulfur. Besides, recent advances related to iodonium-promoted C–H ...

CuI catalyzed sulfonylation of organozinc reagents with sulfonyl halides.

In this study, a facile CuI catalyzed synthesis of sulfones involving a nucleophilic addition of functionalized organozinc reagents to organic sulfonyl chlorides is realized. This reaction proceeds efficiently at room temperature, giving rise to various functional group substituted sulfones, generally in moderate to high yields. The method provides a novel, simple, and promising strategy for fu...
