| Abstract: | TaCl5/NaI system converts a wide range of sulfoxides to the corresponding sulfides in high yields with short reaction times, under mild conditions. It is worth mentioning that this protocol is chemoselective and tolerates various functional groups (such as –Br, –Cl, –OCH3, –CHO, and –NO2) and double bond. |
