© 2014 The Royal Society of Chemistry. The first total synthesis of myrmicine ant alkaloid 5-epi-cis-275B′ (4) is presented. A tandem cyclisation established the entire core of the structure in a single transformation as well as the required 2,5-anti...

Isolation of stable non cyclic 1,2-disulfoxides: revisiting the thermolysis of S-aryl sulfinimines (2014)
Journal Article
Souto, J. A., Lewis, W., & Stockman, R. A. (2014). Isolation of stable non cyclic 1,2-disulfoxides: revisiting the thermolysis of S-aryl sulfinimines. Chemical Communications, 50(84), https://doi.org/10.1039/c4cc05751a

The thermolysis of S-aryl sulfinimines is shown to generate 1,2-disulfoxides and disulfides via initial Cope elimination, dimerisation of the produced sulfenic acid to a thiosulfinate, and subsequent disproportionation of the thiosulfinate.
