Various N-arylated sulfoximines have been synthesized in high yield by a direct approach which is based on a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling strategy. Aryl bromides of variable substitution pattern were found to be the most effective coupling partners, whereas aryl iodides showed a nonpredictable behavior requiring lithium or silver salts as additives to ensure product formation in acceptable yields. Coupling of (S)-2-(2'-bromophenyl)-4-tert-butyloxazoline with enantiomerically pure (-)-(RS)-S-methyl-S-phenylsulfoximine afforded the corresponding product in good yield as a single diastereomer, showing that the palladium-catalyzed arylation proceeds in a stereospecific manner. The reaction with dibromobenzenes yielded the monosulfonimidoyl arenes in all cases, suggesting that the introduction of the sulfonimidoyl moiety deactivates the arene, thus preventing a second coupling step.
