Hydrogen Peroxide → HCID 86750013, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

(Tolyl)diphenylsulphonium hexafluorophosphate (1.08 g, 2.57 mol) and p-toluenesulphonyl chloride (2.38 g, 12.5 mmol) are dissolved with stirring in methanol (40 ml) with cooling in ice water. Sodium methoxide (1.67 g, 31 mmol) and hydrogen peroxide (30% in water, 3.5 g, 31 mmol) are added over 25 mins. After 1 hour the reaction mixture is filtered and evaporated in vacuo. Water is added and the resulting solid is collected and washed with water and ether to give (tolyl)diphenylsulphoxonium hexafluorophosphate (1.08 g, 96% ) with spectra identical to those of authentic material.
