The addition of Grignard reagents or organolithium reagents to the SO 2-surrogate DABSO generates a diverse set of metal sulfinates, suitable for direct conversion to sulfone products. The metal sulfinates can be trapped in situ with a wide range of C-electrophiles, including alkyl, allyl, and benzyl halides, epoxides, and (hetero)aryliodoniums.

Dynamic NMR (DNMR) spectroscopy of [R1C(R2)SO 2R3]Li (R1, R2 = alkyl, phenyl; R3 = Ph, tBu, adamantyl, CEt3) in [D8]THF has shown that the S-tBu, S-adamantyl, and S-CEt3 derivatives have a significantly higher enantiomerization barrier than their S-Ph analogues. C α-S bond rotation is most likely the rate-determining step of the enantiomerization of the salts bearing a bulky group at the S atom and two substituents at the Cα atom. Ab initio calculations on [Me(Ph)- SO 2tBu]- gave information about the two Cα-S rotational barriers, which are dominated by steric effects. Cryoscopy of [R1C(R 2)SO2tBu]Li in THF at -108°C revealed the existence of monomers and dimers. X-ray crystal structure analysis of the monomers and dimers of [R1C(R2)SO2tBu]Li·L n (R1 = Me, Et, tBuCH2, PhCH2, tBu; R2 = Ph, L = THF, 12-crown-4, PMDTA) and [R1C(R 2)SO2Ph]Li·2diglyme [R1 = R2 = Me, Et; R1-R2 = (CH2)5] showed them to be O-Li contact ion pairs (CIPs). The monomers and dimers have a Cα-S conformation in which the lone-pair orbital at the Cα atom bisects the O-S-O angle and a significantly shortened Cα-S bond. The Cα atom of [R1C(R2)SO2R 3]Li·Ln (R1 = Ph; R3 = Ph, tBu) is planar, whereas the Cα atom of [R1C(R 2)SO2R3]Li·Ln (R1 = R2 = alkyl) is strongly pyramidalized in the case of R3 = Ph and most likely planar for R3 = tBu. Ab initio calculations on [MeC- (Me)SO2R]- gave a pyramidalized Cα atom for R = Me and a nearly planar one for R = CF3 and tBu. The [R1C(R 2)SO2-tBu]Li salts were characterized by 1H, 13C, and 6Li NMR spectroscopy. 1H{ 1H} and 6Li{1H} NOE experiments are in accordance with the existence of O-Li CIPs. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy of [R1C(R2)SO2tBu]Li in [D 8]THF at low temperatures showed equilibrium mixtures of up to five different species being most likely monomeric and dimeric O-Li CIPs with different configurations. According to 7Li NMR spectroscopy, the addition of HMPA to [MeC(Ph)SO2tBu]Li in [D8]THF at low temperatures causes the formation of the separated ion pair [MeC(Ph)SO 2tBu]Li(HMPA)4.

Enantiopure aryl benzyl sulfoxides can be prepared using vanadium-Schiff base catalyzed sulfide oxidation and kinetic resolution of the resulting sulfoxide. The kinetic resolution can be effected in combination with asymmetric sulfide oxidation or instead starting from the racemic sulfoxide. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
