Sulfinamide in Asymmetric Chiral Amine Synthesis

Ellman’s sulfinamide (CAS 196929-78-9) is the reagent of choice when a synthesis needs a single enantiomer of a chiral amine. This guide walks through the practical route – condensation, diastereoselective addition, cleavage – and the points that decide success at scale. 1. The Three-Step Logic Step Reaction Key control 1. Condensation Aldehyde/ketone + sulfinamide to

Ellman’s Sulfinamide: Chiral Auxiliary Chemistry and Uses

(R)-(+)-2-Methyl-2-propanesulfinamide (CAS 196929-78-9, C4H11NOS, MW 121.20) – commonly known as Ellman’s sulfinamide – is one of the most widely used chiral auxiliaries in asymmetric synthesis. It converts aldehydes and ketones into N-sulfinyl imines that undergo highly diastereoselective addition, giving enantiopure chiral amines after cleavage. This guide covers its chemistry, use and specifications. 1. What Is
