Preparation. Sulfoxides are typically prepared by oxidation of sulfides, using oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide. Oxidation of thioanisole can be effected with periodate. In these oxidations, care is required to avoid over oxidation to form a sulfone.
How do you make sulfone?
From sulfonyl and sulfuryl halides
derived from sulfonyl halides and sulfonic acid anhydrides. Lewis acid catalysts such as AlCl3 and FeCl3 are required. Sulfones have been prepared by nucleophilic displacement of halides by sulfinates: ArSO2Na + Ar'Cl → Ar(Ar')SO2 + NaCl.
What is sulfoxide in chemistry?
Sulfoxide, also called sulphoxide, any of a class of organic compounds containing sulfur and oxygen and having the general formula (RR′) SO, in which R and R′ are a grouping of carbon and hydrogen atoms. The sulfoxides are good solvents for salts and polar compounds.
