Rh(iii)-catalyzed C–H alkenylation of NH-sulfoximine with vinylsilanes

Abstract

The rhodium(III)-catalysed ortho-C–H alkenylation of NH-sulfoximine using readily available vinylsilanes as an olefinating reagent to introduce vinylsilane groups has been achieved. These groups are adaptable synthetic intermediates, and can be selectively changed into a variety of substituents.
