摘要
A new and convenient procedure is developed for the preparation of N-sulfonylbenzotriazoles from sodium sulfinates and benzotriazoles using molecular iodine as catalyst via the S-N bond formation reaction. This catalytic radical sulfonylation proceeds efficiently in air at room temperature under neutral conditions, and in short reaction time, to afford the corresponding N-sulfonylbenzotriazoles in good yields, thus extending the catalytic application of molecular iodine in organic synthesis.
