β¦ Synopsis
The facile and economical generation of dichlorocarbene from the reaction of chloroform with 50% aqueous sodium or potassium hydroxide under phase transfer catalytic conditions has stimulated study of the reactions of dichlorocarbene with numerous types of non-olefinic substrates.' Only one example of the reaction of dichlorocarbene with a sulfoxide has previously been reported. Thus dichlorocarbene generated by reaction of ethyl trichloroacetate with sodium methoxide reacts with dimethylsulfoxide to yield dimethyl sulfide (20%).2
