Abstract

Abstract Despite the significant applications of stereogenic‐at‐sulfur compounds in pharmaceutical sciences and organic chemistry, efficient methods for precise construction of valuable chiral sulfinamidines remain limited. Herein, we disclosed a chiral phosphoric acid‐catalyzed asymmetric strategy for the synthesis of chiral sulfinamidines through the direct amination of sulfenamides. This method demonstrated remarkable substrate scope and excellent yields and stereoselectivities across a diverse array of sulfinamidine compounds. The synthetic utility and practicability of this robust protocol were further highlighted through gram‐scale reactions, product derivatization and late‐stage functionalization of natural products and drugs.
