ABSTRACT:
Alkyl mercaptans, especially sec-alkyl mercaptans, are oxidized to paraffin sulfonates by reaction with oxygen in a tert-alkanol solvent in the presence of a stoichiometric deficiency of base such as alkali hydroxide or alkoxide or tetraalkyl ammonium hydroxide. Yield of paraffin sulfonate salt is almost quantitative. By-product dialkyl disulfide can be recycled.
