摘要

The formation of C–C and C–N bonds is an effective means to construct functional complex molecules. Herein, the TsOH-promoted dehydroxylation coupling of diarylmethanols with 1,3-dicarbonyls and sulfonamides to afford a variety of N-alkylated1,3-dicarbonyls and sulfonamides was established with only H2O as the byproduct. Differential 1,3-dicarbonyls and sulfonamides, including pharmaceutical molecules (sulfinpyrazone, phenylbutazone, mofebutazone, celecoxib, topiramate, valdecoxib) were compatible with this system to couple with alcohols in moderate to excellent yields. This method shows the merits of wide substrate scope and mild conditions.
