Oxidation of Disulfides by 4-Electron Transfer to O2: A Ru(bpy)32+-Catalyzed Photo-Oxidation System for Selective Formation of Polythioethers

Pages 407-408 | Published online: 17 Mar 2008
 

Abstract

Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) chloride catalyzed the photo-oxidative polymerization of diaryl disulfides by O2, by which poly(thioarylene)s were efficiently produced. The polymerization proceeded through the electrophilic reaction of the sulfonium cation which was produced selectively by the photo-redox system.
