An important synthon, tert-butanethiosulfinate (2), has been effectively resolved by forming molecular complexes with (R)-2,2′-dihydroxy-1,1′-binaphthyl (BINOL, 3) in high enantioselectivity (> 99% ee). The present procedure represents the first example of the resolution of thiosulfinate. The mechanism of chiral discrimination is discussed in terms of molecular recognition based on IR and X-ray analyses of the diastereomeric complexes during the resolution. In the less-soluble complex, (R)-3 and (R)-2 self-assembled as a linear supramolecule; however, in the more-soluble complex, (R)-3 and (S)-2 formed a simple bimolecular complex by one stronger hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonding is the major driving force for effective resolution.
Enantioselective oxidation of di-tert-butyl disulfide with a vanadium catalyst: Progress toward mechanism elucidation

The mechanism of the oxidation of di-tert-butyl disulfide (1) to the chiral thiosulfinate (2) by H2O2 catalyzed by bis(acetylacetonato)oxovanadium and a chiral Schiff-base ligand (3) has been investigated. Techniques included 51V NMR spectroscopy, solvent effects on reaction enantioselectivity, and the isolation and full characterization of a 2:1 ligand-to-vanadium catalyst precursor. A model for the dramatic solvent effect on the enantioselectivity of this reaction was developed, based on the identification of a competing nonselective oxidation pathway. From this model, strategies for limiting this competing pathway were developed.

Figure presented The first study on enantioselective oxidation of functionalized sterically hindered disulfides is reported. This study shows that the Shi organocatalytic system using carbohydrate-derived ketone with oxone is superior to the Ellman-Bolm v
Contra-Friedel-Crafts tert-butylation of substituted aromatic rings via directed metallation and sulfinylation
Clayden, Jonathan,Stimson, Christopher C.,Keenan, Martine

Directed metallation and sulfinylation yields sulfoxides which undergo ipso nucleophilic aromatic substitution with tertiary and secondary alkyllithiums, giving aromatic rings bearing alkyl groups generally incompatible with directed metallation methods and with regioselectivity complementary with classical Friedel-Crafts substitution.
