Abstract

A C4-sulfenylation of 4-iodine-1H-pyrazole-5-amine with arylsulfonyl hydrazide in water was developed. A series of C4-sulfenylated products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields. This protocol features green reaction conditions (metal-free, water as the solvent, in the air), odorless and easily available sulfur reagent, broad substrate scope as well as gram-scale synthesis. Mechanistic studies showed that the in-situ formation of iodine from 4-iodine-1H-pyrazole-5-amine in the presence of aryl sulfonyl hydrazides was the key to the C4-Sulfenylation.
