In situ generated N-bromoalkylamines serve as readily accessible imidating agents leading to N-alkylsulfiliminium bromides that are subsequently oxidized providing the corresponding N-alkylsulfoximines. In this manner, gram quantities of the products can be obtained in a short period of time avoiding the use of toxic and cumbersome to handle alkylating reagents.
