Mechanisms and Reactivity in Reactions of Organic Oxyacids of Sulfur and their Anhydrides

摘要: Publisher Summary There are three simple organic oxyacids of sulfur: (1) sulfenic acids (RSOH), (2) sulfinic (RSO 2 H), and (3) sulfonic 3 H). Of these, the most stable, they their derivatives Y) very commonly encountered in chemistry. Sulfinic acids, while often somewhat unstable thermally, have also been known for a long time. Sulfenic on other hand, part elusive reactive intermediates. Only few, possessing special structural features, enough lifetimes at room temperature to allow actual isolation. Certain such as acid chlorides, RSCI, well-known, isolable, albeit reactive, compounds. In sulfur chemistry, compounds that formally anhydrides sulfur, or mixed derived from two differing oxidation state, generally quite distinctive chemistry own. this context, chapter discusses structure behavior particular oxyacid highlighting corresponding anhydride.
