Abstract

A palladium(II)-catalyzed regio- and stereoselective difunctionalization of alkynoic acids has been achieved using sodium sulfinates and isocyanides to synthesize (E)-β-sulfonylacrylamides. The reaction proceeds via decarboxylative isocyanide addition, followed by sulfonylation. This three-component process works well with aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic alkynoic acids with good functional group tolerance and excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. DFT calculations were carried out to explain the reaction mechanism and the stereoselective formation of (E)-β-sulfonylacrylamides.
