A one-pot approach to both sulfoximines and sulfonimidamides exploits the
high electrophilicity of sulfinyl nitrenes. These rare reactive intermediates
are generated from a sulfinylhydroxylamine (R-O-N=S=O) reagent through an N-O
bond fragmentation process. Addition of carbon and nitrogen nucleophiles enables
the synthesis of sulfoximines and sulfonimidamides in just 15 min.

A redox-neutral Ni(II)-catalyzed addition of (hetero)aryl boroxines to N-sulfinyltritylamine
(TrNSO). The initially formed sulfinamides undergo oxidative chlorination with
trichloroisocyanuric acid to produce sulfonimidoyl chlorides as key
intermediates. Whereas in situ reaction with amines delivers sulfonimidamides,
hydrolysis provides primary sulfonamides.

The reaction of a N-silyl sulfinylamine reagent with Grignard,
organolithium, or organozinc reagents provides a broad range of (hetero)aryl,
alkenyl, and alkyl primary sulfinamides. Treatment of these primary sulfinamides
with an amine in the presence of a hypervalent iodine reagent leads directly to
sulfonimidamides.

A one-pot, two-step mechanochemical synthesis of sulfonimidamides requires
neither a solvent nor inert conditions. In a mixer mill, sulfinamides are
rapidly converted to sulfonimidoyl chlorides by oxidative chlorination with N-chlorosuccinimide
(NCS). Subsequent substitutions with amines provides a wide range of diversely
substituted sulfonimidamides.
