摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for preparing a sulphoxide compound of formula (I) either as a single enantiomer or in an enantiomerically enriched form, comprising the steps of: a) contacting a pro-chiral sulphide of formula (II) with a metal chiral complex, a base and an oxidizing agent in an organic solvent; and optionally b) isolating the obtained sulphoxide of formula (I). wherein n, Y, R<SUB>1</SUB>, R<SUB>1a</SUB>, R<SUB>2 </SUB>and R<SUB>2a </SUB>are as defined in claim 1.
