The LiClO4-mediated synthesis of beta-(dialkylamino) sulfoxides and beta-(dialkylamino) sulfones by addition of alpha-lithiated salts of sulfoxides and sulfones to aldehydes and (trimethylsilyl)dialkylamines
Mr. Naimi-jamal et al., The LiClO4-mediated synthesis of beta-(dialkylamino) sulfoxides and beta-(dialkylamino) sulfones by addition of alpha-lithiated salts of sulfoxides and sulfones to aldehydes and (trimethylsilyl)dialkylamines, EUR J ORG C, (9), 2000, pp. 1735-1739
The LiClO4-mediated one-pot reaction of aldehydes with (trimethylsilyl)dial
kyl amines and the lithium salt of sulfoxides or sulfones, affords the corr
esponding beta-(dialkylamino) sulfoxides and beta-(dialkylamino) sulfones i
n high yields. The aminosulfoxidation reaction of aliphatic or aromatic ald
ehydes lacks diastereoselectivity, but the diastereomeric sulfoxides can be
separated by HPLC or column chromatography for further use.
