example of S-chiral organocatalysts, that are highly efficient and enantioselective in substoichometric amounts, and which use a chiral monosulfinamide group as Lewis base to activate trichlorosilane (HSiCl3) to reduce N-arylketimines. A plausible mechanism involving two molecules of the monosulfinamde catalyst for the activation of HSiCl3 prompted us to design S-chiral bissulfinamides as new catalysts
