Enantioselective S−H Insertion Reactions of α‐Carbonyl Sulfoxonium Ylides

Year: 2020

Type: article

Abstract: The first example of enantioselective S−H insertion reactions of sulfoxonium ylides is reported. Under the influence of thiourea catalysis, excellent levels of enantiocontrol (up to 95 % ee ) and yields (up to 97 %) are achieved for 31 examples in S−H insertion reactions of aryl thiols and α‐carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides.
