Ethyl phenyl sulfone-3-sulfonyl chloride

Cyclopropyl sulfones were shown to be obtained either by cyclization of y-p-tosyloxy sulfones 232 with base or by treatment of phenylsulfonylacetonitrile 233a or ethyl phenyl sulfonyl acetate 233b with 1,2-dibromoethane in the presence of benzyltriethyl-ammonium chloride (BTEA) and alkali in good yields. Chang and Pinnick synthesized various cyclopropane derivatives 234 upon initial treatment of carbanions derived from cyclopropyl phenyl sulfone with either alkylating agents or a carbonyl compound and subsequent desulfonylation, as shown below. 

One Sanofi synthesis of enantiomerically pure (-i-)-clopidogrel (2) utilized optically pure (R)-(2-chloro-phenyl)-hydroxy-acetic acid (20), a mandelic acid derivative, available from a chiral pool. After formation of methyl ester 21, tosylation of (/ )-21 using toluene sulfonyl chloride led to a-tolenesulfonate ester 22. Subsequently, the Sn2 displacement of 22 with thieno[3,2-c]pyridine (8) then constructed (-i-)-clopidogrel (2). Another Sanofi synthesis of enantiomerically pure (-i-)-clopidogrel (2) took advantage of resolution of racemic a-amino acid 23 to access (S)-23. The methyl ester 24 was prepared by treatment of (S)-23 with thionyl chloride and methanol. Subsequent Sn2 displacement of (2-thienyl)-ethyl para-toluene-sulfonate (25) assembled amine 26.
