RESUMEN
This review article explores the synthesis of the organosulfur(vi) species named sulfonimidates, focusing on their synthesis from sulfur(ii), sulfur(iv) and sulfur(vi) reagents, and investigates their recent resurgeance in interest as intermediates to access other important organosulfur compounds. Sulfonimidates have been utilized as precursors for polymers, sulfoximine and sulfonimidamide drug candidates and as alkyl transfer reagents.

Medicinally relevant sulfoximines are accessed from C-S coupling of sulfonimidates and commercially available organomagnesium reagents. Sulfonimidates are conveniently synthesized by oxidative alkoxylation of readily available sulfinamides. This constitutes a general C-S coupling approach for the synthesis of sulfoximines.
