| | Trimethylsulfoxonium iodide Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | WHITE TO LIGHT YELLOW CRYSTALLINE POWDER | | Uses | Trimethylsulfoxonium iodide is a sulfoxonium salt. It is used to generate dimethyloxosulfonium methylide by reaction with sodium hydride. The latter compound is used as a methylene-transfer reagent, and is used to prepare epoxides. | | Uses | Trimethylsulfoxonium Iodide is used to synthesize methylene-transfer reagents that are used in the preparation of epoxides. | | Uses | Treatment with strong base yields the ylide which adds to the carbonyl group of ketones1 and aldehydes2,3 to give epoxides. Also adds preferentially to the double bond of α,β-unsaturated esters to give cyclopropyl esters.4,5 | | Synthesis | Trimethylsulfoxonium iodide is commonly prepared by a reaction of Dimethyl Sulfoxide with ≈2.5 equiv of Iodomethane. After refluxing for 24 h at 80?°C, the reaction mixture is cooled, and the crude solid product is filtered and washed with acetone to give the trimethylsulfoxonium iodide. Iodomethane has to be handled in a fume hood because of its high volatility and toxicity. Excess MeI is used to ensure the completion of the reaction. | | storage | The iodide and chloride salts are hygroscopic and must be stored in a cool, dry place. They are incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and strong bases. The iodide salt is sensitive to light and needs to be protected from light as much as possible. |
