N-Sulfinylimine compounds, R–NSO: a chemistry family with strong temperament

In this review, an update on the structural properties and theoretical studies of N-sulfinylimine compounds (R–NSO) is reported. They were deduced using several experimental techniques: gas–electron diffraction (GED), X-ray diffraction, 17O NMR, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy (UV–Vis)...

Summary:In this review, an update on the structural properties and theoretical studies of N-sulfinylimine compounds (R–NSO) is reported. They were deduced using several experimental techniques: gas–electron diffraction (GED), X-ray diffraction, 17O NMR, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy (UV–Vis), FTIR (including matrix studies of molecular randomisation) and Raman (including pre-resonant Raman spectra). Data are compared with those obtained by theoretical calculations. With these tools, excited state geometry using the time-dependent theory was calculated for these kinds of compounds. The existence of pre-resonant Raman effect was reported recently for R–NSO compounds. The configuration of R–NSO compounds was checked for this series confirming the existence of only one syn configuration. This finding is corroborated by theoretical calculations. The method of preparation is also summarised.
