Chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity in copper-catalysed oxidation of aryl benzyl sulfides

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Enantioselective copper-catalysed oxidation of aryl benzyl sulfides yields enantioenriched sulfoxides (up to 81% ee) in modest yield. This is the highest enantioselectivity reported using a copper catalyst in enantioselective sulfide oxidation. The enhancement of the enantioselectivity of this method through the use of additives is discussed.
