Efficient and Highly Selective Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfoxides in the Presence of an Ionic Liquid Containing Hypervalent Iodine
Publication History
Publication Date:
09 March 2006 (online)
Abstract
A mild, efficient, highly selective, and environmentally friendly oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides with a recyclable ion-supported hypervalent iodine reagent has been developed. This reaction is tolerant of hydroxyl, nitrile, methoxy, carbon-carbon double bonds, and ester functionalities. Aliphatic and aromatic sulfides are selectively oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides at room temperature in excellent yields.
Key words
hypervalent iodine reagent - sulfides - sulfoxides - oxidation - ionic liquids

References and Notes
Typical Procedure: To a solution of methyl phenyl sulfide (62 mg, 0.5 mmol) in distilled water (1.5 g), [dibmim]+[BF4]- (303 mg, 0.6 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 min. Then, the mixture was extracted with Et2O (3 × 8 mL) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by TLC (PE-EtOAc) to afford methyl phenyl sulfoxide.
