In the anodic oxidation of vinylic sulfides on platinum in acetonitrile, a non-classical sulfonium ion explains satisfactorily the transfer of the thioether group leading to an aldehyde in the presence of water, or its acetal in the presence of methanol.Some other reactions depend on the structure of the substrate, particularly the dimerization into anodically inactive forms likely to decompose during the work-up, to lead in some cases to masked ketenes having the structure of a gem-disulfide.
