The present invention provides a
thioether oxidation catalyst, a preparation method thereof and a preparation method of sulfonepyraclostrobin. The preparation method includes: step S1, a
selenium source and a first
solvent are formulated into a first solution; step S2, a Lewis acid source is added to the first solution, and after the first mixing, a second solution is obtained; step S3, an
organic base ligand source is added to the second solution, and after the second mixing, a third solution is obtained; step S4, the third solution is subjected to a
solvent thermal reaction at 100 DEG C to 150 DEG C to obtain a
thioether oxidation catalyst. The present invention combines a
selenium source, a Lewis acid source and an
organic base ligand source in a specific order and condition, and ultimately forms a structurally special, inorganic-organic hybridized selenite catalyst under
solvent thermal conditions. The active atom
utilization rate of the obtained catalyst is high, and the adsorption property to the reactant molecules is strong, which is conducive to the deep oxidation of the reactant, accelerates the oxidation of
thioether to
sulfone, and improves the selectivity and production efficiency of the reaction.
