Exploring a New, Connective Pummerer Reaction

The Pummerer reaction, in which thionium ions are re generated and react with nucleophiles, has evolved into a valuable tool for synthesis. We have developed a connective route to thionium ions that has several advantages over the traditional route from sulfoxides. The process utilises widely-availa...
