Electrochemically Enabled Sulfoximido-Oxygenation of Alkenes with <i>NH</i>-Sulfoximines and Alcohols
Jin‐Lin Wan, Jing‐Mei Huang
Abstract
An electrochemical oxidative sulfoximido-oxygenation of alkenes has been developed by using NH-sulfoximines and alcohols directly. This method proceeds regioselectively without metal catalysts and external chemical oxidants and shows broad substrate scope and diverse functional group compatibility. Based upon the preliminary mechanism studies, N-centered sulfoximidoyl radicals were involved in this electrochemical process.
