Abstract

An effective procedure for deoxygenation of sulfoxides to sulfides using thioacetic acid as a reducing agent and a catalytic amount of I2 in MeCN at ambient temperature has been developed. Using this protocol, a variety of sulfoxides including benzyl, allyl, alkyl and aryl sulfoxides have been successfully reduced to the corresponding sulfides in excellent yields.
