Preliminary results concerning a conceptually novel route to chiral sulfoxides based on the asymmetric alkylation of sulfenate salts with alkyl halides mediated by a chiral phase-transfer catalyst are described. As a representative example, o-anisyl methyl sulfoxide was produced in 96% yield and with an enantiomeric excess of 58% using commercial cinchonidinium derivative 2a.

Incubation of alkyl aryl and allyl aryl sulfides with growing cells of Corynebacterium equi IFO 3730 gave the corresponding optically active sulfoxides with high enantiomeric excess.
