title: The N-silylation of sulfoximines.
abstract: The copper-catalyzed N-silylation of sulfoximines was achieved in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide. Notably, alkyl, phenyl and alkoxyl silanes were all suitable reaction partners. Mechanistic studies revealed that N-silyl acetamide serves as the intermediate.
