Abstract

Aromatic compounds react smoothly with thionyl chloride in the presence of 10 mol% of water at ambient temperature to afford the corresponding symmetrical diaryl sulfoxides in good to excellent yields with high regioselectivity.

Keywords

aryl sulfoxides - arenes - aqueous medium - thionyl chloride
