| Abstract: | The heterogeneous sulfimidation of various sulfides by microencapsulated copper(II) acetylacetonate, MC‐Cu(acac)2], and Cu(acac)2 immobilized in ionic liquids using N‐(p‐tolylsulfonyl)imino]phenyliodinane (PhI?NTs) as nitrene donor has been developed to afford the corresponding sulfimides in good to excellent yields. In the presence of a chiral bis(oxazoline) as ligand, asymmetric induction occurs to afford the chiral sulfimides (up to 50% ee). The ionic liquid containing the immobilized bis(oxazoline)‐copper catalyst can be reused for several cycles with consistent activity and enantioselectivity. |
