Abstract: Molecules containing a chiral S(VI) moiety have found extensive applications in drug design and organic synthesis, despite a lack of diverse asymmetric methods for their creation. Now, a ligand-mediated process has enabled the production of enantioenriched S(VI)-F motifs, providing a foundation for further stereospecific elaborations.
