Expanding the structure–activity relationship of sulfoxaflor: the synthesis and biological activity of <i>N</i>‐heterocyclic sulfoximines

Abstract

The novel series of N-heterocyclic sulfoximines helped to advance the current knowledge of the sulfoxaflor SAR, and demonstrated that the structural requirement for the sulfoximine nitrogen position was not limited to small, electron-deficient moeities, but rather was tolerant of larger functionality.
