title: Odorless, One-Pot Regio- and Stereoselective Iodothiolation of Alkynes with Sodium Arenesulfinates under Metal-Free Conditions in Water.
abstract: A newly developed regio- and stereoselective radical addition of alkyne under metal-free conidtions has been disclosed. This chemistry, in which odorless sodium arenesulfinates in place of thiols are used as the sulfur reagent, provides an efficient, one-pot approach for the generation of β-iodoalkenyl sulfides, which can be easily further functionalized to derive various alkenes and alkynyl sulfides rendering this methodology attractive to both synthetic and medicinal chemistry.
