Abstract

Abstract Image

The synthesis of N-cyanosulfilimines can readily be achieved by reaction of the corresponding sulfides with cyanogen amine in the presence of a base and NBS or I2 as halogenating agents. Oxidation followed by C−N bond cleavage affords synthetically useful NH-free sulfoximines.
