Introduction

N-Sulfinyl imines (sulfinimines) play an important role in asymmetric reactions. They display unique reactivity and stereoselectivity in the synthesis of amino group containing natural products and bioactive compounds. Furthermore, a wide variety of sulfinimines is efficiently prepared for many types of asymmetric reactions, and the chiral sulfinyl in the resultant product is easily removed under comparatively mild conditions.
