Flavin-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of sulfides and thiols with formic acid/triethylamine

Abstract

An efficient and practical catalytic method for the aerobic oxidative transformation of sulfides into sulfoxides, and thiols into disulfides with formic acid/TEA in the presence of a new, readily available, and stable flavin catalyst 5d is described.
