Copper-Promoted Conjugate Addition of Carboxylic Acids to Ethenesulfonyl Fluoride (ESF) for Constructing Aliphatic Sulfonyl Fluorides.

ABSTRACT: A CuO-promoted direct hydrocarboxylation of ethenesulfonyl fluoride (ESF) was developed using carboxylic acid as a nucleophile under mild conditions. A variety of molecules containing both ester group and aliphatic sulfonyl fluoride moiety exhibit great potential in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology. Furthermore, the modification of the known drugs Ibuprofen and Aspirin was also demonstrated.
