Abstract: The invention concerns a method for functionalizing a phenolic compound bearing an electron-donor group, in said group para position, inter alia a method for the amidoalkylation of a phenolic compound bearing an electron-donor group, and more particularly, a phenolic compound bearing an electron-donor group preferably, in the hydroxyl group ortho position. The method for functionalizing in para position with respect to an electron-donor group carried by a phenolic compound is characterised in that the phenolic compound bearing an electron-donor group is subjected to the following steps: a first step which consists of protecting the hydroxyl group in the form of a sulphonic ester function; a second step which consists in reacting the protected phenolic compound with an electrophilic reagent; optionally, a third step deprotecting the hydroxyl group.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process and a reagent useful for the synthesis of sulphanilide which is perhalogenated on the carbon borne by the sulphur atom of the sulphanilide function. This persulphonylation process is characterized in that it comprises a step of placing a nucleophile, whose nucleophilic atom is a nitrogen, in contact with a reagent comprising, for successive or simultaneous addition, a heavy halide of sulphonyl, advantageously sulphonyl chloride, and an organic base comprising a trivalent atom from column V whose lone pair is conjugated directly or indirectly to a bond, and in that the organic part of the said sulphonyl is perhalogenated, advantageously perfluorinated, on the carbon borne by the sulphur. Application to the synthesis of intermediates for organic chemistry.
