Preparation and Photochemistry of Thiophene-S-oxides

Electrochemical oxidation of tetracyclones and tetraphenylthiophene-S-oxide

“…In view of the importance of the desulfurisation of thiophenes and related sulfur containing molecules in fuels [30][31][32][33], an understanding of the electrooxidative behaviour of such compounds may provide a possible electrochemical approach to the oxidative desulfurisation of thiophenes, dibenzothiophenes and other sulfur-containing compounds.…”
