Abstract
A detailed optimization of the catalytic environment for the oxidation of sulfides promoted by Mn(salen)/H2O2 systems is proposed. The experimental setup is demonstrated to be active towards different substrates, providing TOFs up to 9300 h−1, which are among the highest reported for homogeneous catalysts employed in sulfoxidation reactions.
