Abstract

Abstract Oxidation of sulfides using an optically active substituted N-halogenocaprolactam, (+)-N-chloro-7-isopropyl-4-methyl-2-oxohexamethyleneimine, produces the corresponding optically active sulfoxides. The absolute configuration of sulfoxides obtained depends on the chirality of the caprolactam used. The steric course of this asymmetric oxidation is discussed.
