Sulfur fluoride exchange with carbon pronucleophiles Aryl alkyl sulfones are an important class of compounds in drug discovery; thus, new methods toward their synthesis are desirable. A general sulfur fluoride exchange (SuFEx) method to couple aryl sulf...

SuFEx welcomes new coupling partners - carbon pronucleophiles now in @chemicalscience.rsc.org . Congrats to Ball Lab students Joe Novicku and Matt Teeter and Pfizer colleagues Alistair, Tom, Neil, ans @chrisamende.bsky.social on the great work! #MyFirstChemSci

Just completed a three-month sabbatical Groton, CT site with @chrisamende.bsky.social . I had a great time working with excellent colleagues (including @bagphos.bsky.social ) and learning a lot of new chemistry. Thanks so much!

@ballnchemist.bsky.social it was amazing to have you here in Groton! Looking forward to sharing some of the great chemistry explored with everyone soon :)

Lewis Acid-Catalyzed Sulfur Fluoride Exchange A new method uses metal Lewis acids as catalysts to convert sulfonyl fluorides, fluorosulfates, and sulfamoyl fluorides with silyl amines into S–N bond-containing compounds via sulfur fluoride exchange. The reaction successfully employs Ca(NTf2)2 as a catalyst to form sulfonamides, sulfamates, and sulfamides using in situ-generated or commercially available silyl amines in 35–99% yields. Other metal Lewis acids are also demonstrated to be catalysts in SuFEx, forming sulfonamides and sulfamates in yields comparable to those of Ca(NTf2)2.
