Stereoselective synthesis of beta-substituted beta-amino sulfones and sulfonamides via addition of sulfonyl anions to chiral N-sulfinyl imines.
[reaction: see text] A highly stereoselective synthesis of beta-amino sulfones and sulfonamides via addition of sulfonyl anions to chiral N-sulfinyl imines is described. The addition reaction proceeds in good yield (75-99%) and stereoselectivity.
