Abstract

This article describes selective oxidation of a range of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides in good yields by NaClO in poly(ethylene) glycol as a green and reusable solvent using sulfuric acid as an efficient acid catalyst. The new method compares favorably with previous methods in literature. A separable mixture of two new diastereoisomers is reported.
