摘要:
The synthesis of the first 'free' geminal bis(sulfoximine) bis(4-methylphenylsulfonimidoyl) methane is described. Herein we present two different synthetic routes leading either to the racemate or the enantiomerically pure compound. This representative of a new substance class can be regarded as a chiral analogue of the bis(iminophosphorane)s which are used as ligands in rare-earth-metal-catalyzed hydroamination reactions.
