Asymmetric synthesis of N-aryl sulfinamides: Copper(I)-catalyzed coupling of sulfinamides with aryl iodides via kinetic resolution

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/j.tetlet.2016.04.049

An asymmetric synthesis of N-aryl sulfinamides was achieved through copper-catalyzed coupling reactions of aryl iodides with sulfinamides. Such a kinetic resolution process provided the desired coupling products in moderate to good yields and with moderate enantioselectivities.
