Abstract
The disclosure generally relates to the fields of synthetic organic chemistry. In particular, the present disclosure relates to methods and systems for the imidation of sulfides.
Claims18
A method for catalyzing the intermolecular insertion of nitrogen into organosulfur substrates to produce a product having a new S—N bond, the method comprising:
- providing a nitrene source, an organosulfur substrate and a heme enzymes or an engineered heme enzyme;
- and
- allowing the reaction to proceed for a time sufficient to form a product having a new S—N bond.
