Sulfoximines make up a class of compounds of growing interest for crop science and medicinal chemistry, but methods for directly incorporating them into complex molecular scaffolds are lacking. Here we report a scandium-catalyzed variant of the aza-Piancatelli cyclization that can directly incorporate sulfoximines as nucleophiles rather than the classical aniline substrates. Starting from 2-furylcarbinols and sulfoximines, the reaction provides direct access to 4-sulfoximinocyclopentenones, a new scaffold bearing cyclopentenone and sulfoximine motifs, both of interest for bioactive compounds.
