METHOD OF ENANTIOSELECTIVE PREPARATION OF SULFOXIDE DERIVATIVES

摘要

A is a diversely substituted pyridinyl ring and B is a heterocyclic radical comprising an imidazo-pyridinyl ring, using an oxidizing agent in the presence of a titanium -based catalyst and a chiral ligand consisting of a cyclic beta or gamma-amino-alcohol, in an organic solvent, followed, if required, by salt formation with a base. The invention is useful for preparing sulphoxides useful in therapeutics.
