Abstract

A novel protocol to access vinyl sulfones and internal/terminal olefins via cobalt-catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenation coupling (ADC) has been established. This system enables the divergent synthesis of three kinds of olefin compounds through the coupling of alcohols and sulfones under oxidant-free conditions. The broad applicability of this procedure is demonstrated by over forty olefin products, including pharmaceutical-related compounds and complex substrates, in a one-pot process. Preliminary mechanistic studies were conducted, and a proposed reaction pathway was presented.
