Invariants of Symmetric group

The celebrated Chevalley–Shephard–Todd theorem says that $\mathbb C[V]^{S_n}$ is a polynomial algebra and gives the generators of this algebra, where $V$ is the standard (or natural) representation of the symmetric group $S_n$. I am just curious to know for what other representations of $S_n$ the generators of this algebra is known ? When is this algebra a polynomial algebra ?
