I apologize for suggesting that the mechanism is wrong. The external link shows another mechanism that is quite logic but apparently not correct.
Perhaps the drawing of the mechanism should include the generation of active DMSO.
- Methyl disulfide or dimethyl sulfide? The name doesn't match the chemical formula. --Rifleman 82 03:35, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
Ooops! yes, it is dimethyl sulfide (Me2S). The external link shows a wrong mechanism. Should we delete this link? Gabriel Tojo
I've edited the passage explaining less frequent use of the Corey-Kim oxidation in comparison to the Swern oxidation. The rationale that use is less common because toxic dimethyl sulfide need be employed is inaccurate when compared to the stoichiometric amount of dimethyl sulfide produced as a byproduct by the Swern oxidation. In the Corey-Kim methodology, DMS need only be catalytic and is therefore less harmful by that metric. In all likelihood C-K is less frequently used due to activity of the NCS on other functionality within more complex substrates (unwanted background reactions, bypassing the desired process).

Page move
editI've moved the page to change the hyphen to an ndash and fixed the double redirects and some of the links. Could others help fix the other links to this page, bypassing the new redirect? Just click on "what links here" and edit the pages that pass through the redirect. Michael Hardy (talk) 15:32, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
