4-(S-Methylsulfonimidoyl)benzonitrile (BD00975057) is a building block containing a sulfoximine group. Several CDK and ATR inhibitors have exemplified the utilization of the NH sulfoximine group as abioisostere for a sulfonamide group to overcome the main project hurdles of aqueous solubility, sulfonamide-mediated off-target activity and IP. Moreover, its NH group could be expediently further functionalized through Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reaction and multifarious nucleophilic reactions.. Recommended Products is: 4381-25-3 and 83730-53-4.

The direct C-H/N-H dehydrogenative cross-coupling of NH-sulfoximines with electron-rich arenes was realized by oxidative visible-light photoredox catalysis, applying 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium perchlorate as an organic photocatalyst. Sulfoximines display diverse desirable properties for medicinal chem. and the pharmaceutical industry. However, their preparation is still challenging. Our reaction proceeds without sacrificial oxidant, at room temperature and is highly selective for the C-N bond forming reaction. The scope of the reaction includes mono- and multi-alkylated and halogenated arenes, which are reacted with aromatic and aliphatic electron-rich and electron-poor NH-sulfoximines, giving moderate to excellent yields of the N-arylated sulfoximines. In addition, we successfully conducted the developed reaction on a gram scale (1.5 g). Mechanistic investigations show that both arene and NH-sulfoximine interact with the excited-state of the photocatalyst. We propose a radical-based mechanism, where both the arene and the NH-sulfoximine are photo-oxidized to their resp. radical intermediates. Radical-radical cross-coupling subsequently leads to the N-arylated sulfoximine. Two electrons and two protons are released during the reaction and are subsequently converted into H2 by a proton-reducing cobalt-catalyst.
