Sigmatropic rearrangement of vinyl aziridines: expedient synthesis of cyclic sulfoximines from chiral sulfinimines

A novel rearrangement of 2-vinyl aziridine 2-carboxylates to unusual chiral cyclic sulfoximines is described herein. The method allows the synthesis of substituted cyclic sulfoximines in high yields with complete stereocontrol, displaying a wide substrate scope under mild conditions. Further develo...
