Abstract

A variety of thiolsulfonates were prepared and treated with aminophosphine 4. In most of the reactions investigated, sulfone was the only product observed. For example, methyl methanethiolsulfonate (7) and benzyl benzylthiolsulfonate (9) afforded dimethyl sulfone (8) and dibenzyl sulfone (10) in 80 and 70% yield, respec-
