Abstract
A facile and efficient multicomponent reaction of arynes, sulfamides, and thiosulfonates provides a broad range of sulfilimines in very good yields. This protocol could be conducted on a gram scale, and the products were easily converted to sulfides and sulfoximines. Mechanism studies revealed that a sulfenamide generated in situ is the key intermediate for the reaction.
