Sulfoxides are important organic synthons that have been used in a variety of transformations. In this account, we focus on advances in the reaction of sulfoxides with benzynes, which can be divided into two types: benzyne ortho-difunctionalization and benzyne multifunctionalization. 1 Introduction 2 Benzyne ortho-Difunctionalization 3 Benzyne Multifunctionalization 4 Conclusion
