Acid-catalysed conversion of sulphinamides into sulphinates: a new synthesis of optically active sulphinates
Abstract
Treatment of sulphinamides with alcohols in the presence of strong acids results in the formation of sulphinates in good yields; this reaction has been shown to proceed with inversion of configuration at the sulphinyl centre and high stereospecificity which is dependent on the structure of the alcohol used.
