7. It has been reported that the disulfide radical cation is highly reactive in solution, regardless of whether it is generated by chemical, photochemical or electrochemical oxidation, and thus the spectral confirmation is difficult in solution; Marti, V.; Fernandez, L.; Garcia, H.; Roth, H. D. J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2 1999, 145. We have recently observed that the disulfide radical cation (from MeSSMe) with λmax 375 nm is not capable of dissociation into a sulfenium ion, and undergoes an aromatic methylthiolation; the details will be published in the near future.
8. A sulfenium ion seems to be formed in the first instance, but this formation would be impossible because a very unstable sulfenium ion can be generated when it interacts directly with the unshared electron-pair of a compound formed by dissociation from the precursor; In fact, arylsufenium ions are generated by interaction with both the unshared electron-pair of amine and the counterion: Takeuchi, H.; Oya, H.; Yanase, T.; Itou, K.; Adachi, T.; Sugiura, H.; Hayashi, N.
