Electrochemical Oxidative Syntheses of NH‐Sulfoximines, NH‐Sulfonimidamides and Dibenzothiazines via Anodically Generated Hypervalent Iodine Intermediates

Abstract Herein, we report a general method for the synthesis of NH‐sulfoximines and NH‐sulfonimidamides through direct electrochemical oxidative catalysis involving an iodoarene(I)/iodoarene(III) redox couple. In addition, dibenzothiazines can be synthesized from [1,1′‐biaryl]‐2‐sulfides under standard conditions. Notably, only a catalytic amount of iodoarene is required for the generation in situ of an active hypervalent iodine catalyst, which avoids the need for an excess of a hypervalent iodine reagent relative to conventional approaches. Moreover, this protocol features broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance, delivering the target compounds with good‐to‐excellent yields even for a scale of more than 10 g.
