ANODIC OXIDATION OF 1,n-HALO(ALKYLTHIO)ALKANES AND 1,n-CHLORO(ALKYLSULFINYL)ALKANES

Anodic oxidation of 1,n-halo(alkylthio)alkanes n-S-R, X=Cl, Br, I> and 1,n-halo(alkylsulfinyl)alkanes n-S(O)-R> was studied by cyclic voltammetry in anhydrous acetonitrile and by controlled potential electrolyses.The ease of sulfur oxidation was not affected by the alkyl substituents R or the number of methylene groups n in compounds with n>2.The oxidation of the 1,2-halo(alkylthio)ethanes (n=2) occurred at slightly higher potentials.The peak potentials decreased slightly in the order Cl>Br>I which is probably due to the electronegativity of the halogen atoms.The investigated anodic oxidation was shown to be a two electron irreversible process.Electrolyses in aqueous acetonitrile led to the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones in good yields.
