  • Abstract
    The bright yellow crystalline cetyltrimethylammonium tribromide (CTMATB) reagent has been synthesized from the reaction of CTMAB and KBr with H2MoO4·H2O, H2O2 and H2SO4 in the molar ratio 1:2:0.01:4:0.93. CTMATB selectively oxidizes a variety of dialkyl and alkyl aryl sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides in high yields under mild conditions.
