Abstract

Evidence for the formation of unstable sulfenic acids (RSOH) as reaction intermediates is commonly provided by trapping these compounds with methyl propiolate. The crystal structure of a vinyl sulfoxide derived from the trapping of a sulfenic acid with methyl propiolate is reported here. The title compound C12H12O5S crystallized in the triclinic space group,P1¯ with unit cell parameters: a = 6.1600(4), b = 9.7286(7), c = 11.3698(8) Å, α = 112.024(1), β = 94.662(1), γ = 95.429(1)°, and Z = 2.
