A High‐Yield Approach to the Sulfonation of Methane to Methanesulfonic Acid Initiated by H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> and a Metal Chloride — Sudip Mukhopadhyay (2003) | RDL Network
Low temperatures and low pressures suffice for the sulfonation of methane with a suitable free-radical initiator and promoter [Eq. (1)]. Since the RhCl3 promoter can be recycled, and the initiator complex is stable and easy to handle, development of this reaction into an industrial process is promising. MSA=methanesulfonic acid.
