The enantio- or diastereoselective oxidation of readily available (methylthio)methylphosphonates produces optically active (methylsulfinyl)methylphosphonates which can be used as direct precursors of chiral nonracemic methyl sulfoxides in a substitution reaction involving a carbanionic leaving group.
