• % yield. Conclusion A convenient alternative procedure for the synthesis of sulfonimidamides from sulfinamides and various amines and sulfonamides using N-chlorosuccinimide as halogenating agent has been developed. Introduction Sulfonimidamides 3 are derivatives of sulfonic acid and analogous of

• sulfonamides, in which one oxygen has been replaced by a nitrogen group. They are known since 1962,[1] and a number of recent investigations focussed on both their reactivity and application in organic synthesis, such as nitrogen sources for metal-catalyzed nitrene transfer reactions, [2][3][4][5] and their
