Abstract
|
Abstract A mild, efficient, and highly selective oxidation method of sulfides to sulfoxides using Fe(NO3)39H2O and catalytic amounts of KBr or NaBr in the presence of wet SiO2 (50% w/w) has been developed. A variety of aliphatic and aromatic sulfides were selectively oxidized at room temperature in good to excellent yields.
