IMINATION OF SULFUR-CONTAINING COMPOUNDS. XVI. ARYLSULFONYLIMINATION OF N-SUBSTITUTED HALOGENOMETHANESULFENAMIDES
In the reaction of sodiochloroamides of sulfonic acids with N-acylmethanesulfenamides, in addition to imination of the latter, the S-N bond is cleaved and the CH3S residue is iminated.It was shown that the ability of N-acylhalogenomethanesulfenamides to be iminated by the sodiochloroamides of sulfonic acids may be due to the acidic characteristics of the compounds and also to steric factors.N-Acyl-N'-aryl(alkyl)sulfonyldichlorofluoromethanesulfenamidines and the corresponding difluorochloromethanesulfenamidines were obtained by the imination of N-acyldichlorofluoromethanesulfenamides and the corresponding difluorochloromethanesulfenamides by sodiochloroamides of sulfonic acids, and their acidic characteristics were studied.
