Abstract

Recently, we developed a general and facile method for the preparation of 1-sulfonylbenzotriazoles 4 as a practical alternative to the frequently labile and often difficult to access sulfonyl halides. [16] 1-Sulfonylbenzotriazoles 4 provide efficient N-sulfonylation of amines and C-sulfonylation of nitriles, heteroaromatics, sulfones and esters to produce α-cyanoalkyl sulfones, sulfonylheteroaromatics, α-sulfonylalkyl sulfones and esters of α-sulfonyl acids, ...
