title: Switching the reaction pathways of electrochemically generated β-haloalkoxysulfonium ions - synthesis of halohydrins and epoxides.
abstract: β-Haloalkoxysulfonium ions generated by the reaction of electrogenerated Br(+) and I(+) ions stabilized by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) reacted with sodium hydroxide and sodium methoxide to give the corresponding halohydrins and epoxides, respectively, whereas the treatment with triethylamine gave α-halocarbonyl compounds.
