51. Only one diastereomer of 2ce could be obtained in pure form, and the relative stereochemistry of this β-hydroxysulfoximine remained undetermined.
52. This assignment is based on the assumption that the H-bond of the hydroxyl group in β-hydroxysulfoximine 2cd bridges toward the sulfoximine nitrogen. This scenario would be consistent with the bonding mode observed in the majority of related β-hydroxysulfoximines as determined by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure analysis.
