One-Pot Synthesis of Diaryl Sulfonamides using an Iron- and Copper-Catalyzed Aryl C–H Amidation Process
We are grateful for funding from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) (Ph.D. studentships to L.J.N.W., EP/T517896/1 and M.C.H., EP/M508056/1). Financial support from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, the University of Benghazi, Libya (studentship to M.A.B.M.) and the University of Glasgow is gratefully acknowledged.
Abstract
A one-pot, two-stage synthesis of diaryl sulfonamides using sequential iron and copper catalysis is developed. Regioselective para-iodination of activated arenes by the super Lewis acid, iron triflimide and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS), is followed by a copper(I)-catalyzed N-arylation reaction. The process is found to be applicable for the coupling of a range of anisoles, anilines and acetanilides with primary sulfonamides and is used for the one-pot synthesis of biologically important compounds.

- 19 It should be noted that in a previous study (see reference 16b), we performed DFT calculations using Fukui functions, which provided a molecular orbital rationale for the high para regioselectivity observed for iron triflimide catalyzed halogenation of arenes.

- 21 As previously reported (see references 13, 15 and 16), electron-rich arenes are required for the iron(III)-catalyzed halogenation step. Electron-deficient arenes are not substrates for this transformation.
