Abstract

A Chan-Lam-type sulfur-arylation of sulfenamides with commercially abundant boronic acids provides sulfilimines. This coupling reaction converts a broad scope of readily accessible aryl and alkyl sulfenamide and boronic acid substrates. Derivatization of the sulfilimine products enables access to medicinally relevant sulfoximines and sulfondiimines.
