An increased interest to expand three-dimensional chemical space for the design of new materials and medicines has created a demand for isosteric replacement groups of commonly used molecular functionality. The structural and chemical properties of chiral S(VI) functional groups provide unique spatial and electronic features compared with their achiral sulfur- and carbon-based counterparts. Manipulation of the S(VI) centre to introduce structural variation with stereochemical control has remained a synthetic challenge. The stability of sulfonimidoyl fluorides and the efficiency of sulfur fluorine exchange chemistry has enabled the development of the enantiopure bifunctional S(VI) transfer reagentt-BuSF to overcome current synthetic limitations. Here, we disclose a reagent platform that serves as a chiral sulfur fluorine exchange template for the rapid asymmetric synthesis of over 70 sulfoximines, sulfonimidoyl fluorides and sulfonimidamides with excellent enantiomeric excess and good overall yields. Furthermore, the practical utility of the bifunctional S(VI) transfer reagent was demonstrated in the syntheses of enantiopure pharmaceutical intermediates and analogues.
