New 3,4,5‐trisubstituted sulfamidites were prepared through cyclization of β‐amino alcohol diesters with thionyl chloride. The oxidation of these N‐alkylated sulfamidites into the corresponding sulfamidates was then performed. Interestingly, the NMR spectra of the prepared sulfamidites revealed that the ratios of the exo and endo diastereomers of these compounds were influenced by the substituents on the α‐carbon. In addition, theoretical calculations at the DFT B3LYP/6‐31G(d) level were carried and indicated that the exo‐diastereomers were more stable than the endo forms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
