General Reaction Chemistry of Sulfonic Acids. Sulfonic acids may be used to produce sulfonic acid esters, which are derived from epoxides, olefins, alkynes, aHenes, and ketenes, as shown in Figure 1 (10). Sulfonic acids may be converted to sulfonamides via reaction with an amine in the presence of phosphoms oxychloride [10025-87-3] POCl (H)- Because sulfonic acids are generally not converted directiy to sulfonamides, the reaction most likely involves a sulfonyl chloride intermediate. Phosphoms pentachlotide [10026-13-8] and phosphoms pentabromide [7789-69-7] can be used to convert sulfonic acids to the corresponding sulfonyl haUdes (12,13). The conversion may also be accompHshed by continuous electrolysis of thiols or disulfides in the presence of aqueous HCl [7647-01-0] (14) or by direct sulfonation with chlorosulfuric acid. Sulfonyl fluorides are typically prepared by direct sulfonation with fluorosulfutic acid [7789-21-17, or by reaction of the sulfonic acid or sulfonate with fluorosulfutic acid. Halogenation of sulfonic acids, which avoids production of a sulfonyl haUde, can be achieved under oxidative halogenation conditions (15).

In a further development on this theme, the thiol, 153, is first alkylated to the corresponding benzyl ether (158). Treatment with sodium methoxide removes the proton on the amide nitrogen to afford the ambient anion (159). This undergoes alkylation with methyl bromide on the ring nitrogen thus it locks amide into the imine form (160). Chlorolysis serves both to oxidize the sulfur to the sulfone stage and to cleave the benzyl ether linkage there is thus obtained the sulfonyl chloride, 161. 

Sulfinic acids can be prepared by reduction of sulfonyl chlorides. Though mostly done on aromatic sulfonyl chlorides, the reaction has also been applied to alkyl compounds. Besides zinc, sodium sulfite, hydrazine, sodium sulfide, and other reducing agents have been used. For reduction of sulfonyl chlorides to thiols, see 19-57.

The most commonly employed routes for the preparation of the / -sulfatoethylsulfone group, which is the essential structural feature of vinylsulfone reactive dyes, are illustrated in Scheme 8.5. One method of synthesis involves, initially, the reduction of an aromatic sulfonyl chloride, for example with sodium sulfite, to the corresponding sulfinic acid. Subsequent condensation with either 2-chloroethanol or ethylene oxide gives the / -hydroxyethylsulfone, which is converted into its sulfate ester by treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid at 20 30 °C. An alternative route involves treatment of an aromatic thiol with 2-chloroethanol or ethylene oxide to give the /Miydroxyethylsulfonyl compound which may then be converted by oxidation into the /Miydroxyethylsulfone. 

An efficient method has been developed for the conversion of pyrimidine-2-thiol into the sulfonyl chloride 75, which was reacted in situ with amines. A modified method gave the rather more stable (and storable) sulfonyl fluoride 74 <06JOC1081>. 

A sulfonyl chloride group rapidly reacts with amines in the pH range of 9-10 to form stable sulfonamide bonds. Under these conditions, it also may react with tyrosine —OH groups, aliphatic alcohols, thiols, and histidine side chains. Conjugates of sulfonyl chlorides with sulf-hydryls and imidazole rings are unstable, while esters formed with alcohols are subject to nucleophilic displacement (Nillson and Mosbach, 1984 Scouten and Van der Tweel, 1984). The only stable derivative with proteins therefore is the sulfonamide, formed by reaction with e-lysine... 

Complete reduction of sulfonyl chlorides to thiols can be achieved by lithium aluminum hydride [680,693], with zinc [696] and with hydriodic acid generated in situ from iodine and red phosphorus [230]. m-Nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride, however, was reduced not to the thiol but to bis(m-nitrophenyl)disulfide by hydriodic acid in 86-91% yield [697]. 

Reaction of 3-phenyl-1,2,4-thiadiazole-5-thiol (10) (R = Ph) with formaldehyde and with aryl-sulfonyl chlorides leads to N-4 derivatives (26) and (27) (Scheme 8) <89MI 408-01 >. 

The most straightforward method for the synthesis of the sulfonamide class of 1,2-thiazines is the intramolecular amidation reaction between a sulfonyl chloride and an amine. Preparation of the sulfonyl chloride moiety via the oxidation of thiol acetate 179 and subsequent deprotection and cyclization afforded sulfonamide 180, an intermediate for the synthesis of the matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor 38 (Scheme 22) <2004JME2981>. 

Thiols can be prepared by the reduction of sulfonyl halides652 with LiAIH4. Usually, the reaction is carried out on aromatic sulfonyl chlorides. Zinc and acetic acid, and HI. also give the reduction. Sulfonic acids have been reduced to thiols with a mixture of triphenyl-phosphine and either Ii or a diaryl disulfide.633 Disulfides RSSR can also be produced.634 For the reduction of sulfonyl chlorides to sulfinic acids, see 0-118. 

Synthetically useful routes to dibenzo[c,e J[l,2]dithiins are normally based on cyclizations of biphenyI-2,2 -disulfonyl chlorides. A method applied successfully to the parent compound reduces the precursor with zinc in acetic acid to generate the bis thiol, which is then gently oxidized to the dithiin using iron(II) chloride (66HC(21-2)952). An alternative one-step reductive cyclization, which has been applied to the preparation of the 2,9- and 3,8-dinitro derivatives, involves reduction of the appropriate bis sulfonyl chlorides with hydriodic acid in acetic acid (68MI22600). Yet another reductive cyclization uses sodium sulfite followed by acidification, and these conditions lead to dibenzo[c,e][1,2]dithiin 5,5-dioxide. The first step of the reaction is reduction to the disodium salt of biphenyl-2,2 -disulfinic acid which, on acidification, forms the anhydride, i.e. dibenzo[c,e][l,2]dithiin 5,5,6-trioxide. This is not isolated, but is reduced by the medium to the 5,5-dioxide (77JOC3265). Derivatives of dibenzo[c,e] [1,2]dithiin in oxidation states other than those mentioned here are obtainable by appropriate oxidation or reduction reactions (see Section 2.26.3.1.4). 

Since BAs occurring in food do not exhibit satisfactory absorbance or fluorescence in the visible or ultraviolet range, chemical derivatization, either pre- (35-37) or postcolumn (38), is usually used for their detection in HPLC. The most frequently employed reagents for precolumn derivatization are fluorescamine, aminoquinolyl-lV-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC) (39, 40), 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) (41-43), 4-dimethylaminoazobenzene-4 -sul-fonyl chloride (dabsylchloride, DBS) (44), N-acetylcysteine (NAC) (45,46), and 5-dimethyl-amino-1-naphthalene-1-sulfonyl chloride (dansylchloride, DNS) (47,48), phthalaldehyde (PA), and orf/to-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) (49-51), together with thiols such as 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) (37) and 2-mercaptoethanol (ME) (35,49). 

Benzo[6]thiophene sulfonic acids (isolated as the potassium salts) may be converted into the sulfonyl chloride, and then into the corresponding sulfonamide,660 sulfanilide,660 sulfonate ester,86 or thiol.84 Sulfonyl chlorides are hydrolyzed by boiling water to the corresponding sulfonic acid.660... 

The synthesis of 3-alkyl-substituted 1,2-thiazetidine 1,1-dioxides starts by transformation of the amino acids L-Val, L-Leu, L-Ile, and L-Phe into amino alcohols. These ate converted via the bromides to the corresponding thiols 161. Immediate oxidative chlorination affords either sulfonyl chloride hydrochlorides or sulfonic acids 162 which are transformed into the parent /3-sultams 163 <2004HCA90>. Similarly, L-cystine derivatives 164 have also been transformed into the parent /3-sultams 165 by oxidative chlorination followed by cyclization (Scheme 50) C1997LA1261, 2004HCA90>. 

Another approach to the solid phase synthesis of thiazoles involves an interesting C-sulfanylation step. The starting material for this synthesis is a resin bound piperazine 55 which is converted into a thiourea and then treated with an a-bromoketone to give the thiazole 56. Treatment of 56 with either thiols or disulfides and iodine or sulfonyl chlorides with iodine and triphenylphosphine afforded 5-sulfanylthiazoles 57, which could be obtained in high yields and purity after cleavage from the resin <02EJOC2953>.
