Abstract
The asymmetric oxidation of aryl methyl sulfides to sulfoxides with hydroperoxides has been achieved using catalytic amounts of the complex formed in situ between Ti( i-PrO) 4, ( S, S)-diphenylethan-1,2-diol 1 and water. The sulfoxides are obtained in 60% yield and 67–80% enantiomeric excess.
