New Reagents for the Reductive Quenching of Ozonolysis Reactions

Abstract

Abstract 3,3′-Thiodipropionic acid and its salts were found to be effective reductive quench reagents in the ozonolysis of olefins. They were as effective as methyl sulfide without its drawbacks. A polymer-bound form of 3,3′-thiodipropionic acid was also effective.
