Abstract
An Anderson-type hexamolybdochromate(III) is found to be an effective catalyst for the selective oxidation of sulfides to their corresponding sulfones. The reaction was carried out in 60% aq. acetonitrile (v/v) using 30% H2O2 at 60°C. Various dialkyl, alkyl-aryl, and diaryl sulfides were selectively oxidized, giving high yields of sulfones after a simple workup procedure.
