Abstract
The reaction of diaryl sulfoxides with trifluoroacetic anhydride in the presence of ferrocene gives the corresponding sulfide. The reduction of sulfoxides composed of the ferrocene- spacer-methylsulfinyl triad system would proceed via a through-bond electron transfer rather than a through-space process.
