Abstract
The invention thus provides a process for obtaining the preferential replacement by isotopes, of at least one of the hydrogen atoms selected from the group consisting of those attached to the .alpha.- or .alpha.'-carbon atoms in a compound containing the structural moiety (I) ##STR1## which comprises the steps of oxidizing the compound to the corresponding sulfoxide or sulfone which contains the corresponding structural moiety (II) ##STR2## wherein in the sulfoxide n is 1 and in the sulfone n is 2, effecting the isotopic replacement by a known method of said at least one hydrogen atom, and reducing the resultant isotope-labelled sulfoxide or sulfone to the correspondingly labelled compound containing the structural moiety (I).
