Abstract
A mild and metal-free approach has been developed for 1,2-difunctionalization of aryne using sulfenamides as a nucleophile and a halogen source (CX4) as an electrophile to synthesize S-(o-halo)aryl sulfilimines. The late-stage functionalizations of halide handles via Suzuki-Miyaura and Buchwald-Hartwig reactions exhibit the synthetic utilities of the products. The chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, rapidity, and use of economical CCl4 are the advantages of this protocol.

Abstract
Sulfilimines are valuable compounds in both organic synthesis and pharmaceuticals. In this study, we present a copper-catalyzed sulfur alkylation of sulfenamides with N-sulfonylhydrazones. In contrast to prior findings, hydrazones derived from aldehydes act as donor-type carbene precursors, effectively engaging in coupling with sulfenamides via a copper catalyst, demonstrating exclusive S selectivity. The utility of the protocol was highlighted in the rapid access to a wide range of sulfoximine derivatives.

Abstract
Sulfilimines, the aza-variants of sulfoxides, are key structural motifs in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals; and sulfilimine synthesis is therefore important in organic chemistry. However, methods for radical sulfilimination remain elusive, and as a result, the structural diversity of currently available sulfilimines is limited. Herein, we report the first protocol for decarboxylative radical sulfilimination reactions between sulfenamides and N-hydroxyphthalimide esters of primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl carboxylic acids, which were achieved via a combination of photoredox, copper, and Brønsted base catalysis. This novel protocol provided a wide variety of sulfilimines, in addition to serving as an efficient route for the synthesis of S-alkyl/S-aryl homocysteine sulfilimines and S-(4-methylphenyl) homocysteine sulfoximine. Moreover, it could be used for late-stage introduction of a sulfilimine group into structurally complex molecules, thereby avoiding the need to preserve labile organosulfur moieties through multistep synthetic sequences. A mechanism involving photocatalytic substrate transformation and copper-mediated C(sp3 )-S bond formation is proposed.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202315701.

Abstract
A general one-pot approach to diverse N-acylsulfenamides from a common S-phenethylsulfenamide starting material is reported. This approach was demonstrated by C-S bond formation utilizing commercially abundant (hetero)aryl iodides and boronic acids to provide sulfilimine intermediates that undergo thermal elimination of styrene. In contrast, all prior approaches to N-acylsulfenamides rely on thiol inputs to introduce sulfenamide S-substituents. A broad scope of reaction inputs was demonstrated including for approved drugs and drug precursors with dense display of functionality. Several different types of sulfur functionalization were performed on a sulfenamide derived from a complex precursor of the blockbuster anticoagulant drug apixaban, highlighting the utility of this approach for the introduction of high oxidation state sulfur groups in complex bioactive compounds. Mechanistic studies established that the key styrene elimination step proceeds by a concerted elimination that does not require reagents or catalysts, and therefore, this one-pot approach should be applicable to the synthesis of N-acylsulfenamides utilizing diverse electrophiles and reaction conditions for C-S bond formation.

Abstract
The S-N bond remains a synthetically challenging motif for organic chemists to access. The problem arises from instability in many sulfenamide derivatives, which has led to fewer S-N bond surrogate molecules compared to their hydroxylamine (NH2OH) and hydrazine (NH2NH2) analogues. In turn, sulfenamides have often been omitted in studies regarding α-nucleophilicity. Herein, we provide factors responsible for the stability of the sulfenamide motif and provide new insights on the nucleophilic properties of sulfenamides as they relate to the α-effect.

Abstract
Sulfilimines, the aza analogues of sulfoxides, are of increasing interest in medicinal and agrochemical research programs. However, the development of efficient routes for their synthesis has remained relatively unexplored. In this study, we report a transition metal-free, selective S-arylation reaction between sulfenamides and arynes, enabling the facile preparation of structurally diverse sulfilimines under mild and redox-neutral conditions in good yields. The application value of our method was further demonstrated by scale-up synthesis, downstream derivatization, and robustness screen.

Abstract
Sulfilimines are key intermediates to common motifs in medicines and agrochemicals. Typically, this class of compounds are prepared by imidation of thioethers, transition-metal-catalyzed or base-promoted sulfur alkylation and transition-metal-catalyzed sulfur arylation. Here, we report a practical and efficient base-mediated sulfur arylation reaction for the preparation of sulfilimines. A wide range of N-acyl and N-aryl sulfenamides react with various diaryliodonium salts smoothly to afford the sulfilimines in high yields with excellent chemoselectivities.
