• ) [32][33]. To investigate the reactivity of the BBXs in this electrophilic amination reaction, the generated compound 4 was subjected to a retro-Michael addition to produce the sulfenate anion intermediate, followed by the addition of BBX 2. Based on our experience with HIRs, the reaction of 2 with

• nucleophiles is more effective when a pre-formed nucleophile is used [4]. Thus, HIR 2 was added to the reaction mixture after the in situ formation of the sulfenate anion (by retro-Michael addition). First experiments were carried out under the previously described conditions for BBX electrophilic amination

Under the latter conditions, the domino approach was also successfully extended to cyclic ethers, promoting the consecutive electrophilic amination to
