1.0 Experimental section

1.1 General information

The N-haloimides were purchased from Avra Synthesis Pvt. Ltd. Aldehydes and aryl bromides were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, Alfa Aesar, and Spectrochem Pvt. Ltd. Solvents used for extraction and column chromatography were laboratory grade and used as received. Reaction solvents used were received from Fischer Scientific, India Pvt. Ltd. and Spectrochem Pvt.Ltd. Thin layer chromatography was performed on Merck silica gel (60 F254 pre-coated plates 0.25 mm), and the developed plates were visualized by UV fluorescence quenching. Silica gel (100–200 mesh) for column chromatography was purchased from Avra Synthesis Pvt. Ltd. The 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic data were recorded with a Bruker 400 or 500 MHz instrument. Chemical shifts for the 1H NMR spectra are reported relative to residual CHCl3 (δ=7.26 ppm) or DMSO-d6 (δ=2.50 ppm). 13C NMR are reported relative to CDCl3

(δ=77.00 ppm) or DMSO-d6 (δ=39.52 ppm). FTIR spectra were recorded on a JASCO spectrometer and are reported in wavenumbers (cm–1). High resolution mass spectra (HR-MS) were recorded on Q-ToF Micro mass spectrometer and 6545 Accurate-Mass Q-ToF LC/MS instrument.

1.2 General procedure for synthesis of secondary benzyl alcohols 11

An oven dried round-bottom flask was charged with magnesium (1.2 equiv.), applied high vacuum three times and back filled with nitrogen. Then a small piece iodine (I2) and solvent dry THF 5 mL was added under N2 atmosphere. Solution of aryl bromide (1.0 equiv. 3 mmol) in 5 mL of dry THF was dropped slowly to the round bottom flask and stirred at room temperature for 30 min under N2 atmosphere. After the formation of Grignard reagent, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0 oC and then corresponding aldehyde 1.5 equiv. was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1-2 h. Progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC. After consumption of reactants, the reaction mixture was quenched with sat. NH4Cl solution and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 x 20 mL). The combined organic layer was washed with sat. NaCl solution and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The organic layer was concentrated under vacuum, and the crude mixture was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexanes/ethyl acetate) to afford pure secondary benzyl alcohols 1.

An oven dried reaction tube containing secondary benzyl alcohol 1 (0.7 mmol) was charged with NBS 2a (2.0 equiv.) under open atmosphere and allowed to stir for a few min. at room temperature. 1 mL of THF was added after the generation of brown color gas (bromine), which resulted in a reddish brown color mixture, then reaction tube was closed with glass stopper. The formation of α-bromo ketone 3 was monitored by TLC and the fadeout of reddish brown color was observed in 10-15 min. Then, DMSO was added to the reaction mixture and followed by the addition of 1.1 equiv. p-toluenesulfinate. After the reaction was allowed to stir for 50 min-1.5 h at room temperature (see the time given in Table 2 for the respective examples). After complete consumption of reactants (progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC), the reaction mixture was washed with 10 mL of sat. NaHCO3 solution and extracted using ethyl acetate (3 x 20 mL). The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexanes:ethyl acetate = 8:2) to give pure β-keto sulfone 5.

General procedure for the gram scale reaction 5a

7.5 mmol (1 g) of 1-phenylpropanol 1a was added to an oven dried round-bottom flask and reacted with 15 mmol (2.67 g) of NBS 2a, stir for a few min. at room temperature under open atmosphere. After the generation of brown color gas (bromine), 10 mL of THF was added, which resulted in a reddish brown color mixture, then closed with stopper. α-Bromo ketone 3a formation was monitored by thin-layer chromatography and the fadeout of reddish brown color was observed in 10 min. To which 10 mL of DMSO solvent was added and followed by the addition of (8.25 mmol) p-toluenesulfinate. After the reaction was allowed for 1 h at room temperature (progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC). The reaction mixture was washed with 50 mL of sat. NaHCO3 solution and extracted using ethyl acetate (3 x 50 mL). The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexanes:ethyl acetate = 8:2) to give pure β-keto sulfone 5a in 92% (1.45 g) yield.
