Abstract
The first use of the NH S-trifluoromethyl sulfoximine as an ortho directing group is described for the functionalization of the aryl group bonded to the sulfur atom. Various electrophiles (halogen, carbon, oxygen, sulfur, boron, etc.) are introduced on the aromatic ring. Cyclic S-trifluoromethyl sulfoximines are synthesized either with properly chosen electrophiles or by structural adjustment of o-azido sulfoximines. Fluorinated analogues of prazosin are also prepared.
