Iodomethyl-, chloromethyl-, and fluoromethyldimethylsulfonium salts, 4b-d, have been synthesized and are observed to be highly reactive molecules that exhibit extraordinary diversity with respect to the nature of their reactivity, undergoing facile direct substitution (SN2) reactions, but also being highly susceptible to electron-transfer reactions. Cyclic voltametry experiments indicated that the iodomethyldimethylsulfonium compound, 4b, is a potent electron acceptor, even surpassing the reactivity of perfluoro-n-alkyl iodides in that capacity. The iodo- and chloromethyldimethylsulfonium salts, 4b,c, as well as the analogous iodomethyltrimethylammonium salt, 3a, are shown to be reactive SET acceptors.

Formation of trans- (R=Me, Ph or C6H4Me-p) has been achieved by the oxidative addition of ClCH2SR to (PPh3)4Pt in refluxing PhH.The reaction of ClCH2SMe with (PMe2Ph)4Pt led to cis-.The reaction of trans-(PPh3)2Pt(CH2S
