An efficient and operationally simple method for the reduction of sulfoxides to sulfides has been developed using bis(catecholato)diboron (B2cat2) as a reducing agent. The present method accommodates various functional groups which are generally prone to reduction: halides, alkynes, carbonyls, nitriles, and heterocycles are totally intact, and only sulfoxide moieties undergo reduction chemoselectively. Moreover, the remaining diboron and the resulting boron-containing wastes are readily removable, the practicality of this protocol being thus demonstrated.

Base-promoted proton abstraction from ?-(N-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-N-methylaniline)chromium tricarbonyl (3) took place predominantly at the meta position and variously meta-substituted N-methylacetanilides 4 were obtained after reactions with electrophiles followed by oxidative decomplexation and N-acetylation.Application of the present method to variously N,N-disubstituted anilines 5 and phenols 7 was then examined and the corresponding meta substituted anilines 6 and phenol 9 were obtained.Keywords - metalation of aromatic ring; chromium tricarbonyl complex; tert-butyl dimethylsilyl protecting group; meta-substituted anilines; meta-substituted phenol; electrophilic substitution
