One-pot synthesis of (Z)-4-(2-bromovinyl)benezenesulfonamides by microwave-induced simultaneous debrominative decarboxylation and sulfamation of anti-2,3-dibromo-3-(4-chlorosulfonylphenyl)propanoic acid

One-pot simultaneous debrominative decarboxylation and sulfamation of anti-2,3-dibromo-3-(4-chlorosulfonylphenyl)propanoic acid in DMF (for alkyl amines) or DMF-pyridine (for aryl amines) using a diverse range of alkyl and aryl amines under microwave irradiation condition stereoselectively afforded (Z)-4-(2-bromovinyl)benzenesulfonamides in good yields.
