Popis: The electrophilic behaviour of enantiomerically pure N - p -toluenesulfinimines ( 1a – d ) and N - tert -butanesulfinimine 2 has been tested in the asymmetric Baylis–Hillman reaction with methyl acrylate with and without Lewis acids. In the presence of In(OTf) 3 good yields and high diastereoselectivities have been achieved providing an effective route to β-amino-α-methylene esters.
