An easy and efficient visible-light-mediated method is developed for the direct conversion of sulfides into sulfoxides without using any photocatalysts. This method shows good compatibility with functional groups, high selectivity, and yields of sulfoxides, and detailed mechanism studies have been conducted. The accessible, low-cost, and eco-friendly nature of this method makes it attractive for various applications in chemical synthesis.
A facile and efficient visible-light-mediated method for directly converting sulfides into sulfoxides under clean conditions without using any photocatalysts is reported. This method exhibited favourable compatibility with functional groups and afforded a series of sulfoxides with high selectivity and yields. Moreover, in order to shed more light on such a transformation, detailed mechanism studies were carried out both experimentally and theoretically. The readily accessible, low-cost and eco-friendly nature of the developed method will endow it with attractive applications in chemical synthesis.
