Abstract
α-Sulfinyl esters can be readily prepared through thiol substitution of α-bromo esters followed by oxidation to the sulfoxide. Enzymatic resolution with lipoprotein lipase provides both the unreacted esters and corresponding α-sulfinyl carboxylic acids in high yields and enantiomeric ratios. Subsequent decarboxylative halogenation, dihalogenation, trihalogenation and cross-coupling gives rise to functionalized sulfoxides. The method has been applied to the asymmetric synthesis of a potent inhibitor of 15-prostaglandin dehydrogenase.

Abstract
![]()
Thiocyanates, versatile
building blocks in organic synthesis, are
shown to be easily accessible via an interrupted Pummerer reaction
of sulfoxides. This facile dealkylative functionalization proceeds
under mild conditions through electrophilic activation of the sulfoxide
partner. The resulting thiocyanate itself can serve as a handle for
diversification in a straightforward one-pot procedure.

Abstract
A highly stereoselective [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement of allylic and propargylic ethers controlled by a chiral sulfoxide moiety is presented. The activation provided by the sulfoxide at the remote ortho position allows the rearrangement of less-activated and unexplored benzylic carbanions. Thus, this general methodology gives access to the asymmetric synthesis of homoallylic, enynyl, and allenylic α-benzyl alcohol derivatives.

Abstract
A series of novel, highly substituted N-PMP aziridines have been accessed in high yields by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of intact aziridines. The cross-coupling employed aryl bromides and tertiary organometallic aziridines, generated from sulfinylaziridines by sulfinyl-magnesium exchange and transmetalation to the aziridinylzinc with zinc chloride. A wide range of electron-rich and electron-poor aryl bromides were utilized to afford the functionalized aziridine products as single diastereoisomers with retention of configuration at the reacting center. Assessment of the reaction kinetics showed zero-order in both the aziridine species and the aryl bromide. This indicated that the rate-determining step was reductive elimination from the palladium(II) species bearing both the aziridine and aryl groups to form the hindered C-C bond. The intermediate aziridinylzinc species underwent a progressive, background degradation that led to a plateau in yield and afforded reduced yields in substrates with ortho-substituted aryl groups, which are less reactive due to the additional steric demands.

Abstract
We demonstrate that allenes, chiral 1,2-dienes, appended with basic functionality can serve as ligands for transition metals. We describe an allene-containing bisphosphine that, when coordinated to Rh(I), promotes the asymmetric addition of arylboronic acids to α-keto esters with high enantioselectivity. Solution and solid-state structural analysis reveals that one olefin of the allene can coordinate to transition metals, generating bi- and tridentate ligands.
