The addition of benzoic acid in the oxidation of a range of sulfides and thiazolidinethiones using KMnO4 under phase-transfer conditions provides a convenient and high yielding procedure for formation of the corresponding sulfones, thiazolidinones and thiazolidinone S,S-dioxides.
α-METHYLTHIOBENZYLSULFONES AS SYNTHETIC INTERMEDIATES PART VI. SYNTHESES OF SOME VINYLIC SULFIDES AND SULFOXIDES

, p. 11 - 18 (2007/10/02)
The syntheses of some p-substituted isopropyl α-methylthiobenzylsulfones and their reaction with CCl4-KOH-t-BuOH to give the corresponding vinyl sulfides, as well as their oxidation to the corresponding sulfoxides, are described. Some aspects of the reactivity of the α-sulfenyl, α-sulfonyl benzylic carbanions are discussed. Key words: Sulfides, sulfoxides, benzyl sulfones, sulfenylation, rearrangement.
