title: A sulfitylation-oxidation protocol for the preparation of sulfates.
abstract: A novel, high-yielding method for sulfation of alcohols has been developed, proceeding via sulfite- and sulfate diester intermediates. Sulfite diesters serve as versatile sulfate monoester precursors, allowing for transformations that are difficult or impossible with the latter compounds.
