Abstract
An asymmetric oxidation of N,N-dialkyl sulfenamides is exhibited by using anionic stereogenic-at-cobalt(III) complexes as catalysts. This protocol provides an alternative approach to access a diverse set of chiral tertiary sulfinamides with high enantioselectivities (24 examples, up to 94:6 e.r.). Additionally, control experiments suggest that this protocol could be accomplished through a chiral cationic S(IV) intermediate.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
