The mechanism of the electrochemical reduction of ?-tricarbonylchromium-phenyldimethylsulfonium tetrafluoroborate in anhydrous DMSO has been investigated, together with that of the free phenyldimethylsulfonium tetrafluoroborate.On varying the reduction potential and the protonating power of the medium the number of electrons transferred changes together with the nature and the yield of the products.It is suggested that formation of an intermediate sulfonium ylid by a two-electron process is followed by an acid-base reaction.
