When triphenylmethanesulfenyl chloride (12) (or its thio 13 or dithio homolog 14) are treated with hindered olefins 15 and 16, thiiranes 10 and 11 are produced in high isolated yields (ca. 94%). Treatment of 10 and 11 with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) leads to the formation of thiirane 1-oxides 8 and 9 (99% isolated yields). The structures of 8-11 were established by (1)H and (13)C NMR, mass spectrometry as well as by X-ray. Thermal decomposition of either 8 or 9 smoothly delivers sulfur monoxide to various 1,3-dienes giving cyclic sulfoxides in good yield. A variety of conditions were employed to optimize the yield of the trapped adducts.

Jupiter's moon Io hosts extensive volcanism, driven by tidal heating. The isotopic composition of Io's inventory of volatile chemical elements, including sulfur and chlorine, reflects its outgassing and mass-loss history and thus records information about its evolution. We used submillimeter observations of Io's atmosphere to measure sulfur isotopes in gaseous sulfur dioxide and sulfur monoxide, and chlorine isotopes in gaseous sodium chloride and potassium chloride.

Nowadays, the Claus process is one of the most efficient procedures to recover sulfur from acid gases. In the current study, the effect of working pressure and the role of initial species (sour gas, ammonia, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbon, nitrogen, and oxygen) are analyzed using COMSOL software. The reaction occurs between acid gases, which contain 88% HS, 10.

Stepwise Sulfite Reduction on a Dinuclear Ruthenium Complex Leading to Hydrogen Sulfide.

Sulfite reduction by dissimilatory sulfite reductases is a key process in the global sulfur cycle. Sulfite reductases catalyze the 6e reduction of SO to HS using eight protons (SO + 8H + 6e → HS + 3HO). However, detailed research into the reductive conversion of sulfite on transition-metal-based complexes remains unexplored.
