Abstract
Sulfones are common, readily available reagents that have recently attracted attention as versatile reagents for cross-coupling reactions. This Review summarizes advances in desulfonylative transformations of sulfones affected by molecular catalysis, including transition-metal catalysts, photocatalysts, and organocatalysts. In addition to catalyst choice, the design of the sulfonyl group is a critical factor to control reactivity. The concepts presented herein will provide new strategies to construct diverse molecules with high efficiency and modularity.
