An electrochemical sulfonylation reaction of styrenes was developed in which sodium arylsulfinates were used as sulfonylating reagents, a catalytic amount of KI was used as a redox mediator, and Bu4NBF4 was used as the electrolyte. In addition to various styrenes, sodium arylsulfinates with either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups were tolerated.

苯乙烯在碘化钾催化下磺酰化电化学合成乙烯基砜

开发了苯乙烯的电化学磺酰化反应，其中芳基亚磺酸钠用作磺酰化试剂，催化量的KI用作氧化还原介质，Bu4NBF4用作电解质。除了各种苯乙烯之外，还可以耐受带有给电子或吸电子基团的芳基亚磺酸钠。
