An efficient copper-catalyzed method for introducing aryl substituents on the amino end of sulfonimidamides has been developed. Microwave irradiation allows for short reaction times and good yields, and a variety of aromatics can be coupled. ... Sulfonimidamides are chiral analogues of sulfonamides with a stereogenic sulfur atom. [¹] These compounds have been studied for potential biological applications as analogues of the aspartic acid transition state in metalloproteases, [²a] ...
