When the same reactions were similarly performed in the absence of the catalyst, the corresponding sulfoxides could be obtained. This viable synthetic approach for the synthesis of DL-threo-thiamphenicol is a simple procedure, which has an economic advantage in view of its application for the large-scale synthesis because it can be carried out under mild conditions.展开更多
