Procedure
A solution of potassium peroxymonosulphate (`oxane` trade mark; 1.0 g, 1.63 mmol) in water (20 ml) was added in one portion to a stirred solution of 3-methyl-7-(nitromethylthio)benzo[b]thiophene (0.7 g, 2.93 mmol) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (40 ml) cooled to 5° C. The mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with water (50 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 ml). These extracts were washed with water, dried (MgSO4), and evaporated to leave an oil, which was purified by flash chromatography using 4:1 v/v dichloromethane/hexane as eluant, to give 3-methyl-7-(nitromethylsulphinyl)benzo[b]thiophene as a pale yellow solid (0.35 g); NMR:2.5(s, 3H), 5.55(s, 2H), 7.25(s, 1H), 7.6-8.0(m, 3H).
