Popis: The binuclear MnIVMnIV manganese complex 1 catalyzes the periodic acid oxidation of sulfides to sulfones under mild conditions. The reaction was found to be highly selective giving almost quantitative yields of the sulfones even in the presence other easily oxidized groups. Only amines were found to hinder the reaction.
