A novel oxidative C–S bond cleavage reaction of DMSO for N-methylation and subsequent C–C bond formation is described. A series of aryl ketones as well as acetone derivatives could be selectively converted into the corresponding β-amino ketones. Mechanistic studies suggested that N-methylation between imine and DMSO was involved in the reaction.
