ChemInform Abstract
The sulfides (I) are converted to the sulfoxides (II) using the triazolopyridine/hydrogen peroxide reagent system mentioned in the title. Prolonged reaction time causes partial formation of the corresponding sulfones. Thianthrene (Ih), for example, produces the monosulfoxide (IIh), together with the sulfone (III) and the bissulfoxides (IV). This method is also applied to penicillins. Further examples are given in the original paper.
