✦ Synopsis


Sulphenes, RR'C =SO,, were first suggested as chemical intermediates by Wedekind and Schenk in 1911. ' Although no stable substance z 3 of this type has yet been isolated, several studies have made their transient existence highly probable. There was, however, and still is, a need for a method of preparation of simple sulphenes under neutral aprotic conditions. The ultraviolet irradiation of S-ketosulphones bear-4 ing a hydrogen atom attached to the y-carbon atom, seemed a possible route: abstraction of the y hydrogen atom by the electron deficient oxygen of the excited carbonyl group, followed by Norrish Type II cleavage would produce a sulphene.
