Oxidation of enethiolizable dithioesters with mCPBA affords the corresponding sulfines (thiocarbonyl S-oxides) quantitatively, with a high chemoselectivity.This reaction is (E) stereoselective: delivery of the oxygen proceeds from the side opposite the alkylthio group.The thermal stabilities of these new molecules have been evaluated.The competitive oxidation of various thiocarbonyl compounds has been examined. Key words: sulfines / thiocarbonyl oxides / dithioesters / oxidation / heterocumulenes / organic synthesis / sulfur compounds
