The sulfilimine bond (-S═N-), found in the collagen IV scaffold, significantly stabilizes the architecture via the formation of sulfilimine cross-links. However, precisely governing the formation and breakup process of the sulfilimine bond in living organisms for better life functions still remains a challenge. Hence, we established a new way to regulate the breaking and formation of the sulfilimine bond through hydrogen selenide (HSe) and hypobromous acid (HOBr), which can be easily controlled at simulated physiological conditions. This novel strategy provides a circulation regulation system to modulate the sulfilimine bond in peptides and NC1 hexamers, which can offer a substantial system for further study of the physiological function of collagen IV.

Sulfilimines, a privileged class of -S(iv)[double bond, length as m-dash]N- functional groups found in nature, have been exploited as valuable building blocks in organic synthesis and as pharmacophores in drug discovery, and have aroused significant interest in the chemical community. Nevertheless, strategies for late-stage introduction of sulfilimines into peptides and proteins have still met with limited success. Herein, we have developed a method of introducing biological sulfilimine fragments into peptides by an intermolecular sulfur atom transfer cascade reaction, utilizing hydroxylamine condensed with the acid moieties of peptides and varied diaryl disulfides.

Click reactions, which are characterized by rapid, high-yielding, and highly selective coupling of two reaction partners, are powerful tools in synthesis but are rarely reversible. Innovative strategies that reverse such couplings in a precise and on-demand manner, enabling a click-clip sequence, would greatly expand the technique's versatility. Herein, a click and clip reaction pair is demonstrated by manipulation of a sulfilimine linkage.

A copper-catalyzed Ullmann-type cross-coupling reaction of sulfenamides with aryl iodides is developed. The key to success is the use of a 2-methylnaphthalen-1-amine-derived amide ligand, which enables the formation of an S-C bond to access functionalized sulfilimines in good to excellent yields at room temperature. This method has the advantages of mild conditions, a broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, and high chemoselectivity.

The one-pot synthesis of λ-dibenzothiophen-5-imino-N-dibenzothiophenium triflate (1) in multigram scale is reported. This compound reacts with Rh(esp) (esp=α,α,α',α'-tetramethyl-1,3-benzenedipropionic acid) generating a Rh-coordinated sulfonitrene species, which is able to transfer the electrophilic nitrene moiety to olefins. When indenes are used as substrates, isoquinolines are obtained in good yields.

Sulfilimines, the aza-variants of sulfoxides, are key structural motifs in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals; and sulfilimine synthesis is therefore important in organic chemistry. However, methods for radical sulfilimination remain elusive, and as a result, the structural diversity of currently available sulfilimines is limited. Herein, we report the first protocol for decarboxylative radical sulfilimination reactions between sulfenamides and N-hydroxyphthalimide esters of primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl carboxylic acids, which were achieved via a combination of photoredox, copper, and Brønsted base catalysis.
