ABSTRACT
A Pd(II)-catalyzed desulfitative arylation protocol between sulfonamides and sodium arylsulfinates was herein reported. The direct arylation reaction was successfully achieved by a Pd(II)/Ag(I)-mediated system without participation of any external ligands with a release of SO2. And different N-aryl sulfonamides were obtained readily in up to 86% yields, exhibiting good functional groups tolerance (25 examples).
