Abstract
The dihydroxylation of olefins using AD-mix or OsO4/K3Fe(CN)(6) in the presence of sulfides has been examined as has the rate of oxidation o f various classes of sulfides. The selectivity of olefin oxidation in preference to sulfur oxidation depends on the nature of the sulfur moi ety, and can be problematic for certain classes of substrates.
