Abstract

Abstract Stable arenesulfenic acids were synthesized by solid state pyrolysis of the corresponding n-butyl sulfoxides bearing bicyclic cyclophane skeletons with moderate size and rigidity. Their high stability demonstrates that the bowl-shaped cavity of the cyclophane works as an efficient steric protection field. The quantitative disulfide formation by the reaction of a sulfenic acid and a thiol is also described.
