Inside Cover: CH Activation in S-Alkenyl Sulfoximines: An Endo 1,5-Hydrogen Migration (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 28/2012)
First published: 22 June 2012
Graphical Abstract
A Hydride Transfer that occurs by a 6-endo-trig process initiates an intramolecular redox reaction. In their Communication on page 7016 ff., M. Harmata et al. demonstrate that heating of N-alkyl-, N-allyl-, and N-benzyl-substituted S-alkenyl sulfoximines results in the formation of NH-S-alkyl sulfoximines under appropriate conditions. The intermediates in the reaction can also give access to four- and six-membered heterocyclic rings and a new class of chiral dienes.
