A. Leblanc et al., NEW DECONTAMINANTS - OXIDATIVE ELIMINATIO N OF AN YPERITE ANALOG, 2-PHENYL-2'-CHLORODIETHYLSULFIDE, USING POTASSIUM MONOPERSULFATE, Phosphorus, sulfur and silicon and the related elements, 79(1-4), 1993, pp. 141-145
The reaction of potassium monopersulfate (CUROX or OXONE) with 2-pheny
l 2'-chloro diethylsulfide PhCH2CH2SCH2CH2Cl goes to completion in a v
ery short time. The intermediate chlorinated sulfone PhCH2CH2SO2CH2CH2
Cl leads the phenethylvinylsulfone PhCH2CHSO2CH=CH2 by HCl elimination
.
