The asymmetric organocatalytic alpha-sulfenylation of substituted piperazine-2,5-diones is reported, with cinchona alkaloids as chiral Lewis bases and electrophilic sulfur transfer reagents. Catalyst loadings, the type of sulfur transfer reagent, temperature and solvent were investigated in order to optimize the reaction conditions. The effects of ring substitution and the type of catalyst on the yield and enantioselectivity of the reaction are reported.

An organocatalytic asymmetric α-sulfenylation of 2-substituted indolin-3-ones with N-(alkylthio or arylthio)succinimides has been developed for the first time using Cinchona-derived squaramide as the catalyst. Various chiral 2,2-disubstituted indole-3-ones with S- and N-containing heteroquaternary carbon stereocenters were obtained with up to 98% yield and 99% ee.

The first asymmetric α-sulfenylation of azlactones with N-(sulfanyl)succinimides has been developed by using cinchona alkaloid-derived squaramide as a catalyst and 4 Å molecular sieves as an additive. The reaction conditions were suitable to 4-alkyl and benzyl-substituted azlactones as well as N-(benzyl/alkyl/arylthio)succinimides, affording adducts with high enantioselectivities (81-94% ee).

Organocatalytic alpha-sulfenylation of substituted piperazine-2,5-diones is reported through the use of cinchona alkaloids as Lewis bases and electrophilic sulfur transfer reagents. 1-Phenylsulfanyl[1,2,4]triazole, a novel sulfur transfer reagent, gave excellent product yields with a number of substituted piperazine-2,5-diones under mild conditions. Catalyst loading, stoichiometry of sulfur electrophile, temperature and solvent were optimized to achieve high product yields.

Chiral allenamides are prepared with high levels of enantiomeric purity by [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of propargylic sulfimides. The required branched propargylic sulfides are prepared by an enantioselective organocatalytic aldehyde alpha-sulfenylation followed by Corey-Fuchs alkynylation.
