Abstract
Lycodine alkaloids are important natural products with diverse biological effects. In this manuscript, we set out the first structural optimization of the 2-pyridone moiety of Lycodine alkaloid via selective O-arylation under metal-free conditions and obtained a series of potent bioactive molecules against monosodium urate (MSU)-induced IL-1β production. Further investigations demonstrated that these natural product derivatives could activate the neuro-immunomodulatory cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) to block the initial phase of NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Compared with the clinical drugs hydrocortisone and indomethacin, as well as commercially available CAP agonists GTS-21 and pnu282987, 3k and 3q possessed greater potency against MSU-induced IL-1β production. Meanwhile, these molecules possessed less cytotoxicity against promonocytic THP-1 macrophages when compared with colchicine. This work reports a concise strategy for direct modification of 2-pyridone moiety from natural Lycodine alkaloids, and provides novel frameworks for discovering CAP activators and drugs for gout arthritis.

Abstract
A copper-catalyzed Ullmann-type cross-coupling reaction of sulfenamides with aryl iodides is developed. The key to success is the use of a 2-methylnaphthalen-1-amine-derived amide ligand, which enables the formation of an S-C bond to access functionalized sulfilimines in good to excellent yields at room temperature. This method has the advantages of mild conditions, a broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, and high chemoselectivity. The utility of this protocol is highlighted through late-stage modification of drug-relevant molecules and sulfilimine product derivatization.

Abstract
Sulfilimines are versatile synthetic intermediates and important moieties in bioactive molecules. However, their applications in drug discovery are underexplored, and efficient asymmetric synthetic methods are highly desirable. Here, we report a transition metal-free pentanidium-catalyzed sulfur alkylation of sulfenamides with exclusive chemoselectivity over nitrogen and high enantioselectivity. The reaction conditions were mild, and a wide range of enantioenriched aryl and alkyl sulfilimines were obtained. The synthetic utility and practicability of this robust protocol were further demonstrated through gram-scale reactions and late-stage functionalization of drugs.

Abstract
Sulfilimines and their derivatives have garnered considerable interest in both synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Photochemical nitrene transfer to sulfides is known as a conventional synthetic approach to sulfilimines. However, the existing methods have a limited substrate scope stemming from the incompatibility of singlet nitrene intermediates with nucleophilic functional groups. Herein, we report the synthesis of N-sulfonyl sulfilimines via visible-light-mediated energy transfer to sulfonyl azides, uncovering the previously overlooked reactivity of triplet nitrenes with sulfides. This reaction features broad functional group tolerance, water compatibility, and amenability to the late-stage functionalization of drugs. Thus, this work represents an important example of energy transfer chemistry that overcomes challenges in traditional synthetic methods.

Abstract
Sulfinamidines are promising aza-SIV chiral building blocks in asymmetric synthesis and drug discovery. However, no report has documented their enantioselective synthesis. Here we present an enantioselective synthesis of sulfinamidines via electrophilic amination of sulfenamides using an enantiopure N-H oxaziridine. The resulting enantiomerically enriched primary sulfinamidines are configurationally stable at 90 °C in solution and show remarkable stability against organic acids and bases under non-aqueous conditions. We also demonstrate a one-pot, three-component, enantioselective synthesis of sulfinamides using N-H oxaziridine reagents.

Abstract
A direct and practical three-component tandem reaction of arynes, S-methyl-d3 sulfonothioate with sulfonamides or amides is developed. The reaction is highly efficient and chemoselective, which allows mild synthesis of trideuteromethylated sulfilimines with broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility, giving the products in good to excellent yields with 92%-99% deuterium incorporation. Mechanism studies disclosed sulfenamide that generated in situ is the key intermediate for the reaction. This protocol provides potential method for introduction of -SCD3 moiety for deuteration of marked drugs and drug candidates containing sulfilimine skeleton.

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.

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
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.
