Abstract
A reaction of xanthates, DMSO, and Fenton's reagent proceeds under very mild conditions to provide various β-keto sulfones in high yields.
see article for more examples
A dropwise addition of hydrogen peroxide is needed, as an addition in one portion can result in vigorous runaway with excess heating.
