Abstract

Abstract The preparation of alkyl sulfonates via the nucleophilic substitution of alkali or ammonium sulfites (salt of sulfurous acid) on alkyl halides in aqueous solution is generally known as the Strecker synthesis or Strecker reaction. It has been reported that the Strecker reaction is feasible for the conditions where ionic alkyl sulfite cannot exist. This reaction has been modified by converting alkyl chlorides into corresponding iodides before the sulfonation. This reaction has important application in the preparation of alkyl sulfonates with high molecular weight and high purity.
