(±)-2-Methyl-2-propanesulfinamide is used in the synthesis of 4-sulfonyliminopiperidine and its reaction with benzyl Grignard to form an important pharmaceutical building block, 4-benzyl-4-aminopiperidne. It is also used to prepare spiro tosylaziridines via methylene insertion into the derived sulfonylimine.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
