The reaction of variously substituted diaryl sulfoxides with anhydrous HCl in chloroform was examined.The products ranged from the corresponding sulfides to mono- and dichlorinated sulfides and sulfoxides.The same reaction in the presence of phenol afforded primarily the corresponding sulfides accompanied by o- and p-chlorophenol.The latter reaction is an efficient means for deoxygenating diaryl sulfoxides.The mechanism of the reaction and the nature of the chlorinating species are discussed.
