Abstract

Sulfoxides and sulfides are two important functional groups in organic molecules, containing different valence states of sulfur. Both sulfoxidation and sulfenylation with common sulfurating reagents were successfully tuned via a facile variation of the atmosphere under photocatalyzed conditions. The sulfoxidation and sulfenylation transformations involved tandem electron-/energy-transfer and single-electron-transfer processes, respectively. Late-stage sulfoxidation for pharmaceuticals and sugar derivatives was established to be highly compatible. Divergent formal syntheses of sulfoxide/sulfide-containing marketed pharmaceuticals were switchably implemented. Gram-scale operations further demonstrated the practicability of the protocol.
