Single-Electron Transfer from Dimsyl Anion in the Alkylation of Phenols

While attempting to synthesize biaryl ethers we discovered the inadvertent formation of a methylsulfoxylmethyl ether byproduct. Formation of this unexpected byproduct presented an opportunity to streamline the synthesis of methylsulfoxylmethyl ethers. Mechanistic studies suggest a radical pathway with dimsyl potassium as a reducing agent.
