Tritylsulfinylamine: A New Member in the Family of Sulfinylamines

摘要

Triphenylmethyl N-sulfinylamine (trityl-NSO) was prepared from the reaction of trityl amine and SOCl2. Trityl-NSO was characterized by 1H, 13C, and 14N NMR spectroscopy in CH2C12 solution and by Raman and infrared spectroscopy in the solid state. Crystals of trityl NSO were grown from n-heptane and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (P1-bar, alpha = 8.9642(9) A, b = 9.2135(9) A, c = 11.0645(11) A, alpha = 93.578(2)0, Beta = 101.098(2)0, gamma = 118.1420, Z = 2, and R(sub int) = 0.0332 at 223 K). Trityl-NSO represents the first alkyl N-sulfinylamine that has been fully structurally characterized.
