Selective Synthesis of Sulfonamides and Sulfenamides from Sodium Sulfinates and Amines.

ABSTRACT

An effective method was explored for the selective synthesis of sulfonamides and sulfenamides using sodium sulfinates and amines as starting materials. This method offers mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, high efficiency, and readily accessible materials, making it suitable and an alternative strategy for the preparation of a variety of biologically or pharmaceutically active compounds.
