Fu, Zi-Hao; Tian, Hao-Dong; Ni, Shao-Fei; Wright, James S.; Li, Ming; Wen, Li-Rong; Zhang, Lin-Bao published an article in 2022, the title of the article was Scalable selective electrochemical oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides.Safety of 5-Methoxy-2-[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methyl]thio]benzimidazole And the article contains the following content:
An electrochem. protocol for the selective oxidation of sulfides RSR1 (R = Ph, 2-bromophenyl, pyridin-2-yl, etc.; R1 = Me, 3-hydroxypropyl, cyclohexyl, etc.) and e.g., dibenzothiophene to sulfoxides RS(O)R1 and dibenzothiophene sulfoxide has been developed in NaCl that plays a dual role: (1) as an electrolyte for the electrochem. transformations and (2) as a redox mediator to avoid oxidation of sensitive functional groups. Instead of a traditional oxidant, this methodol. utilized traceless electrons as an ideal oxidant using anodic oxidation to access sulfoxides in good to excellent yields at ambient temperature This metal-free electrochem. protocol is simple, environmentally friendly, and compatible with various sensitive functional groups using mixed acetone/water as the green solvent. Moreover, the cost-effective graphite felt electrodes can be reused up to ten times without loss of electrochem. activity. The methodol. could be easily conducted on a gram or even a decagram scale. The experimental process involved the reaction of 5-Methoxy-2-[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methyl]thio]benzimidazole(cas: 73590-85-9).Safety of 5-Methoxy-2-[[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methyl]thio]benzimidazole
