A dual nickel photocatalytic approach enables a scalable synthesis of a broad scope of N-arylated sulfoximines from the respective free NH-sulfoximines and bromoarenes. The reaction exhibits a high functional group tolerance. In addition, other sulfoximidoyl derivatives like sulfonimidamides and sulfinamides can smoothly be converted under the reaction conditions.

In a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling strategy for the synthesis of various N-arylated sulfoximines, aryl bromides of variable substitution pattern were found to be effective coupling partners, whereas aryl iodides showed a nonpredictable behavior requiring lithium or silver salts as additives to ensure product formation in acceptable yields.

An efficient copper-TBAF-catalyzed arylation of sulfoximines with arylsiloxanes in dichloromethane at room temperature affords the desired N-aryl sulfoximines in good to excellent yields under an oxygen atmosphere. This mild C-N bond formation complements the existing approaches due to the advantageous properties of arylsiloxanes such as availability, low toxicity, ease of handling, high stability, and environmental benignity.

In an efficient synthesis of N-aroylated sulfoximines, methylarenes serve as aroyl coupling partner of NH-sulfoximines in the presence of an environmentally benign iron catalyst. This protocol involves oxidation of benzylic C-H bonds of toluenes to generate aroyl radical intermediates followed by oxidative coupling with NH-sulfoximines. The intermediate aroyl radical is successfully trapped with TEMPO to prove the radical pathway of the reaction.

A method for the synthesis of N-aroylated sulfoximines involves a manganese oxide promoted C-H activation of methyl arenes to form an aroyl intermediate which then reacts readily with N-chlorosulfoximines to form a series of valuable aroyl sulfoximine derivatives in high yields.
