Abstract
Methods to access chiral sulfur(VI) pharmacophores are of interest in medicinal and synthetic chemistry. We report the desymmetrization of unprotected sulfonimidamides via asymmetric acylation with a cinchona-phosphinate catalyst. The desired products are formed in excellent yield and enantioselectivity with no observed bis-acylation. A data-science-driven approach to substrate scope evaluation was coupled to high throughput experimentation (HTE) to facilitate statistical modeling in order to inform mechanistic studies. Reaction kinetics, catalyst structural studies, and density functional theory (DFT) transition state analysis elucidated the turnover-limiting step to be the collapse of the tetrahedral intermediate and provided key insights into the catalyst-substrate structure-activity relationships responsible for the origin of the enantioselectivity. This study offers a reliable method for accessing enantioenriched sulfonimidamides to propel their application as pharmacophores and serves as an example of the mechanistic insight that can be gleaned from integrating data science and traditional physical organic techniques.

Abstract
A mechanochemical synthesis of sulfonimidamides by iron(II)-catalyzed exogenous ligand-free N-acyl nitrene transfer to sulfinamides is reported. The one-step method tolerates a wide range of sulfinamides with various substituents under solvent-free ambient conditions. Compared to its solution-phase counterpart, this mechanochemical approach shows better conversion and chemoselectivity. Mechanistic investigations by ESI-MS revealed the generation of crucial nitrene iron intermediates.

Abstract
Sulfonamides are one of the most important pharmacophores in medicinal chemistry, and sulfonamide analogues have gained substantial interest in recent years. However, the protein interactions of sulfonamides and especially of their analogues are underexplored. Using FKBP12 as a model system, we describe the synthesis of optically pure sulfenamide, sulfinamide, and sulfonimidamide analogues of a well characterized sulfonamide ligand. This allowed us to precisely determine the binding contributions of each sulfonamide oxygen atom and the consequences of nitrogen replacements. We also present high-resolution cocrystal structures of sulfonamide analogues buried in the pocket of a protein target. This revealed intimate contacts with the protein including an unprecedented hydrogen bond acceptor of sulfonimidamides. The use of sulfonamide analogues enabled new exit vectors that allowed remodeling of a subpocket in FKBP12. Our results illuminate the protein interaction potential of sulfonamides/sulfonamide analogues and will aid in their rational design.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a notable surge in the prominence of enantioenriched sulfur(VI) compounds within the chemical science, particularly in the realm of bioactive molecules. However, the synthesis of these enantioenriched sulfur(VI) compounds has posed significant challenges, necessitating the exploration of diverse synthetic methods. Accordingly, this review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the latest advancements in the synthesis of sulfoximines, sulfonimidate esters, sulfonimidamides, and sulfonimidoyl halides, with a focus on developments since 1971.

Abstract
NH-Sulfonimidamides are prepared by copper-catalyzed coupling of primary sulfinamides with secondary amines. Neither a ligand nor an additive is needed, and air is the terminal oxidant. The reactions occur at room temperature, show good functional group tolerance, and lead to products in good yields. A sulfanenitrile is proposed as an intermediate in this oxidative amination.

Abstract
Here, we report the first mechanochemical synthesis of sulfonimidamides. The one-pot, two-step method requires neither a solvent nor inert conditions. In a mixer mill, sulfinamides are rapidly converted to sulfonimidoyl chlorides by oxidative chlorination with N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS). Subsequent substitutions with amines provides a wide range of diversely substituted sulfonimidamides.

Abstract
The first synthesis of primary tert-butanesulfonimidamides with high enantiopurity was realized by imination (or imination/N-functionalization) of enantioenriched N'-tert-butanesulfinyl amidines, followed by hydrazinolysis. N'-Sulfinyl amidines served as imination precursors during copper-catalyzed sulfonyl nitrene transfer or iodonitrene-based NH transfer. Further transformations allowed access to primary tert-butanesulfonimidamides with diverse substitutions on the nitrogen of S═N.

Abstract
Biginelli-type multicomponent reactions (MCRs) with NH-free sulfonimidamides provide 2,3-dihydro-1,2,6-thiadiazine 1-oxides in high yields. The couplings are performed in a planetary ball mill under solvent-free mechanochemical conditions. Acetic acid or ytterbium triflate are used as catalysts. A representative product was characterized by X-ray single crystal structure analysis revealing molecular details of the highly functionalized three-dimensional heterocycle. Further product modifications lead to additional structural scaffolds.

Abstract
The naturally occurring isothiocyanate sulforaphane, found in Brassicaceae vegetables, is promising in cancer treatment, e.g., by the normalization of enhanced levels of NF-κB-signaling in tumor stem cells. We chemically synthesized seven sulforaphane analogues by substitution of the sulfinyl group (S(O)) to either sulfimidoyl (S(NR)) or sulfonimidoyl (S (O) (NR)) groups, and characterized them in the cell lines of pancreatic cancer and several other tumor entities, including the NCI-60 cell panel. MTT and colony forming assays, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, microRNA arrays, bioinformatics, tumor xenotransplantation, and Kaplan Meier survival curves were performed. Compared to sulforaphane, the analogue SF102 was most efficient in inhibition of viability, colony formation, tumor growth, and the induction of apoptosis, followed by SF134. Side effects were not observed, as concluded from the body weight and liver histology of chick embryos and survival of C. elegans nematodes. Among 6659 differentially regulated microRNAs, miR29b-1-5p, and miR-27b-5p were downregulated by sulforaphane compared to controls, but upregulated by SF102 and SF134 compared to sulforaphane, suggesting differential signaling. Each substance was involved in the regulation of several NF-κB-related target genes. In conclusion, sulforaphane analogues are promising for the development of highly active new drugs in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Sulfonimidamides are obtained in moderate to very good yields from the key intermediates O-benzotriazolyl sulfonimidates, which are formed by reacting aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates, N-tritylsulfinylamine, and N-hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate in a process mediated by a tertiary amine. The formation of the sulfonimidate proceeds in inexpensive and environmentally benign dimethyl carbonate as the solvent, it does not require anhydrous conditions, and the product yields generally exceed 70 %. The substrate scope is broad, and a wide range of sensitive organic functionalities is well tolerated. The reactions probably proceed via aryl radicals formed from diazonium cations with assistance from both the tertiary amine and the sulfinylamine.

Abstract
An unprecedented set of structurally diverse sulfonimidamides (47 compounds) has been prepared by various N-functionalization reactions of tertiary =NH sulfonimidamide 2 aa. These N-functionalization reactions of model compound 2 aa include arylation, alkylation, trifluoromethylation, cyanation, sulfonylation, alkoxycarbonylation (carbamate formation) and aminocarbonylation (urea formation). Small molecule X-ray analyses of selected N-functionalized products are reported. To gain further insight into the properties of sulfonimidamides relevant to medicinal chemistry, a variety of structurally diverse reaction products were tested in selected in vitro assays. The described N-functionalization reactions provide a short and efficient approach to structurally diverse sulfonimidamides which have been the subject of recent, growing interest in the life sciences.

Abstract
Unprotected tertiary sulfonimidamides have been prepared in good to excellent yields in a one-pot transformation from tertiary sulfinamides through NH transfer. The reaction is mediated by commercially available (diacetoxyiodo)benzene and ammonium carbamate in methanol under convenient conditions. A wide range of functional groups are tolerated and initial results indicate that the NH transfer is stereospecific. A small molecule X-ray analysis of NH sulfonimidamide 2 a and its behavior in selected in vitro assays in comparison to the matched sulfonamide are also reported. This new reaction provides a safe, short and efficient approach to sulfonimidamides, which have been the subject of recent, growing interest in the life sciences.
