Abstract
Reaction of dimethyl sulphoxide with singlet oxygen was carried out using methanol as a solvent in presence of a sensitizer rose bengal. A white solid product was isolated and characterized as dimethyl sulphone by physical, chemical and spectral methods. A quantitative mechanism has been proposed for this reaction.
