Related imino derivatives are characterized as ... sulfimides, ... sulfoximides; (Chern. Abstr. uses here names ending with ... sulfimines and
... sulfoximines, respectively).

Cyclic sulfoxides and sulfones ar best reated additively as oxides and dioxides, respectively (see p. 87).

Amines, Imines, and their Derivatives
For amines too radicofunctional, conjunctive, and substitutive naming
methods are so confusingly practiced side by side that a unifying treatment
has long been overdue. This would most easily be accomplished by adopting the systematic parent hydride name azane; as second choice, though,
at least those substitutive names should be exclusively used which result
from attaching the suffix ... amine to the unchanged name of the parent.
By the way, the latter approach would be concordant with the pertinent
indexing modes of Chern. Abstr.
H3C- NH2
substit.: Methanamine
new: Methylazane
radicof.: Methyl amine
Naphthalen-l-amine
Naphthalen-l-ylazane
I-Naphthylamine
substit.: 9aH-Quinolizin-3-amine
radicof.: 9aH-Quinolizin-3-yl amine
new: (9aH-Quinolizin-3-yl}azane
An acyclic amine terminally substituted by a cyclic system is named either
substitutively or conjunctively; (radicofunctional and azane names may
be obtained as described above).
