Abstract

1,3,5-Triazo-2,4,6-triphosphorine-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexachloride (TAPC) is an efficient promoter for the oxidation of sulfides and deoxygenation of sulfoxides. Excellent yields, short reaction time, easy and quick isolation of the products, solvent-free process, and excellent chemoselectivity are the main advantages of this procedure.
