A new method for the preparation of alkyl aryl sulfides through direct oxidative thiolation of alkanes or ethers with arylsulfonyl hydrazides using di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTBP) as an oxidant catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2 has been reported. The C-H bonds in various alkanes or ethers were successfully converted into C-S bonds to yield the corresponding sulfides in moderate to good yields.

a mild, efficient and fast method for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl and tetrahydropyranyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using cro3 in the presence of sulfonic acid functionalized ordered nanoporous na+-montmorillonite (sanm) and under solvent-free conditions is reported. all reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. ease of the p...

The allyl and propenyl ethers of diols and polyols have recently attracted increasing attention as monomers and comonomers [1–2]. Most convenient method of the preparation of propenyl ethers consists in isomerization of the corresponding, readily available allyl ethers. Moreover, this isomerization is a key step of deprotection of hydroxyl group, protected as allyl ether [3,4]. Particularly con...
