Synthesis of N-trifluoromethylsulfilimines via trifluoromethyl nitrene and their synthetic potential

Abstract

Trifluoromethyl nitrene generated photocatalytically from azidotrifluoromethane was added to sulfides to afford new N-trifluoromethylsulfilimines. Their methylation yielded N-methyl-N trifluoromethyl sulfonium salts and oxidation provided N-trifluoromethyl sulfoximines.
