Abstract

LiNbMoO6 catalyzes a chemoselective sulfur oxidation of allylic sulfides containing double bonds of high electron density without any epoxidation. Selective oxidation to either the corresponding sulfoxides or the sulfones was realized by controlling the stoichiometry of the quantitative oxidant, H2O2. Various functional groups including hydroxy, formyl, and ethers of THP or TBDMS are tolerated.
