title: Iron-catalyzed imination of sulfoxides and sulfides.
abstract: [reaction: see text] The Fe(III)-catalyzed imination of sulfoxides and sulfides with sulfonylamides in the presence of iodinanes has been investigated. The best results were obtained when Fe(acac)(3) was used as a catalyst in combination with iodosylbenzene, providing an effective alternative (stereospecific) access to sulfoximines and sulfilimines.
