Mild Oxidation of Alcohols with o-Iodoxybenzoic Acid (IBX) in a Water/CH2Cl2 Mixture in the Presence of Phase-Transfer Catalyst

A mild oxidation of alcohols to the respective carbonyl compounds with o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) catalyzed by n-Bu 4 NBr in a water/dichloromethane (1:1) mixture is described. The method offers the advantage of a simple, inexpensive catalyst and the diminution of organic solvent employed in the rea...

Summary:A mild oxidation of alcohols to the respective carbonyl compounds with o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) catalyzed by n-Bu 4 NBr in a water/dichloromethane (1:1) mixture is described. The method offers the advantage of a simple, inexpensive catalyst and the diminution of organic solvent employed in the reaction.
