Abstract

The application of V (V) catalysts in oxidation of sulfides with peroxides offers an efficient procedure, that is compatible with different functional groups, and leads to good yields and selectivities. However, the understanding of the factors affecting the reactivity of different catalysts is still far to be complete. An experimental and theoretical study on a series of V (V) complexes containing variously substituted salen and salophen ligands is reported with ...
