One Electron Reduction of Sulfonium Salts: A Mechanistic Study

Abstract

dc:description

Twenty-three phenylsulfonium salts have been reduced to sulfides using the heterogeneous intercalation compound potassium/graphite (KC(,8)). The products, consisting of sulfides and hydrocarbons, have been identified by glc, ('1)H NMR and mass spectroscopic comparison to authentic material, and/or elemental analysis. The systems studied were acyclic (1), cyclic (2), and benzofused cyclic (3) sulfonium salts.
