General description

Sulfoxonium ylides are highly stable carbene precursors, serving as a safer alternative to diazo compounds as they that do not generate gases as byproducts. Sulfoxonium ylides have been shown to be effective in a wide array of transition metal catalyzed C-H functionalization and coupling reactions.

An iridium-catalyzed method was developed for the synthesis of imidazo-fused pyrrolopyrazines. The presence or absence of a nitrogenated ligand controlled the outcome of the reaction, leading to simple β-keto amine products in the absence of added ligand and the cyclized

Azolopyrimidines are efficiently prepared by direct imidoyl C-H bond activation. Annulations of N-azolo imines with sulfoxonium ylides and diazoketones under redox-neutral conditions and alkynes under oxidizing conditions provide products with various arrangements of nitrogen atoms and carbon substituents. We have

Direct and efficient synthesis of 1-naphthols has been realized via Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation of sulfoxonium ylides and subsequent annulation with alkynes, where the sulfoxonium ylide functioned as a new traceless bifunctional directing group. This reaction occurred under redox-neutral conditions with
