Thioyl and sulfonyl radicals are usually produced from various thiols and sulfonyl derivatives in high efficiency by single-electron-transfer (SET) oxidation. The generated sulfur (thioyl/sulfonyl) radicals are also highly reactive intermediates having various applications in the construction of org...
