Abstract

Chiral sulfoximines and sulfimides are an interesting class of compounds in various areas. However, methodologies for preparing these chiral sulfur compounds in a stereoselective manner have been underdeveloped. Herein, we briefly summarize our recent studies on asymmetric synthesis of sulfoximines and sulfimides from readily available enantioenriched sulfinamides. In these studies, optically pure sulfoximines and sulfimides having various carbon substituents on their sulfur atom could be obtained.
