Chlorosulfates are molecules that have been known about for over a century, though their chemistry has not evolved much since then. The transformation of chlorosulfates into sultones is an example of new reactivity of this type of sulfur‐containing compound. The illustration shows a teacher explaining on the blackboard this transformation occurring through a cascade process that includes unusual pathways of traditional reactions, thus adding new vistas to classic textbook processes.
