Abstract

Throughout the years, various photochemical processes have been developed in common organic solvents and attempts to find greener solutions have provided excellent results. Yet, escaping from common organic solvents has become a challenge. Herein, we present a photochemical aerobic oxidation of sulfides, where commercially available drinks or products are used as the solvent under catalyst-free conditions.
