Sulfite formation versus chlorination of benzyl alcohols with thionyl chloride

Recently, we have reported the photolytic decay of a library of para-substituted dibenzylic sulfites in a Srinivasan-Griffin-Rayonet photochemical reactor. In an attempt to synthesize the complete library for that study we discovered that bis(p-methoxybenzyl) sulfite and bis(p-phenoxybenzyl) sulfite could not be formed and only their corresponding benzyl chlorides were synthesized. Thus, sulfite formation versus chlorination of a range of para-substituted benzyl alcohols with thionyl chloride was investigated. Sulfite formation was observed to be parabolically related to Swain and Lupton's Field ?-values while chloride formation was found to be linearly related to Swain and Lupton's Field ?-values.
Photolytic decomposition of dibenzylic sulfites

The photolytic decay of a library of para-substituted dibenzylic sulfites has been evaluated by UV radiation in a Srinivasan-Griffin-Rayonet photochemical reactor in various deuterated solvents. The decay for each dibenzylic sulfite was examined with respect to Swain and Lupton's field constant, F. The rate of photolytic decay varies depending on the identity of the benzyl substituents. Furthermore, it has been observed that the solvent affects both the rate of sulfite photolytic decay as well as final product distribution.
Preparation of 4-substitute benzyl sulfoxylates and related chemistry
Tardif, Sylvie L.,Harpp, David N.
, p. 4791 - 4795 (2007/10/03)
Preparation of dibenzyl sulfoxylate 7a and 4-substituted benzyl sulfoxylates (7b, 4-NO2; 7c, 4-Cl; 7d, 4-CH3O, 7e: 4-CH3) are reported. The unexpected stability of 7b has permitted the first X-ray determination at room tem
