Abstract

Aliphatic polysulfoxides having sulfoxide groups in the main chain were prepared by the selective oxidation of aliphatic polysulfides using aqueous hydrogen peroxide in chloroform. Degree of oxidation to sulfoxides was calculated from the integral ratios of methylene protons adjacent to sulfur atoms in lH-NMR spectra. Poly(hexamethylene sulfoxide) was subjected to Swern oxidation of primary or secondary alcohols, in which 1-octanol and 6-undecanol were oxidized to give octanal and 6-undecanone, respectively, in quantitative yields.
