solutions and it is found that various symmetric as well as unsymmetrical sulfides undergo oxidation under mild conditions to provide the respective sulfoxides in high yields. A series of
gem
-dihydroperoxides were obtained from the corresponding ketones in good yields under ambient conditions.
Selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and safe conversion of ketones to
gem
-dihydroperoxides were achieved under mild conditions using solid poly(
