HzO 100 240 Benzophenone, 85; p-toluenesulfonic acid, 45h B 80 20 Benzophenone, 30; diphenyl disulfide, 35 a Solvent A was aqueous acetic acid and solvent B was glacial acetic acid. Oxidation of the m-tolyl and p-tolyl sulfides yielded comparable amounts of the appropriate sulfoxides. Oxidation of the tolyl sulfides produced good yields of benzhydrol and the arylsulfonyl bromides, as sulfonamides. e One-half mole of bromine per mole of ...
