Di-p-tolyl disulfone and diphenyl disulfone were decomposed in various arenes by irradiation of UV light. The products found were arenesulfonic acids, arenesulfonic anhydrides, thiolsulfonates, diaryl sulfones, biaryls, and sulfur dioxide. All the findings indicate that photolyses of α-disulfones yield a pair of arenesulfonyl radicals.
