Metal-free one-pot oxidative conversion: Molecular Iodine Mediated Oxidation Organic Reactions
Abstract
Various oxidative compounds such as aldehyde, ketone ester, and acids can be produced in large yields by an effective iodine-mediated oxidative reaction of organic molecules. Molecular iodine is a generally available and commercially extremely inexpensive substance that induces oxidative esterification. With the comparison with different Brønsted acid catalysis, molecular iodine or iodophilic activations proceed the reaction onto a deoxygenation pathway. With only a few mol% of I2, the oxidation occurs very quickly at room temperature. This approach could also be used to transport different benzil derivatives from nonactivated alkynes, such as diaryl acetylenes. Molecular iodine with several mild reagents such as aq. NH3, ∼30% aq. H2O2 and DMSO might be used to convert various one degree alcohols, particularly benzylic alcohols, into the corresponding aromatic amides in suffiently high yields in a one-pot method. Similarly, by treating different benzylic chloride, bromide and iodide with a molecular iodine oxidation medium, the corresponding aromatic amides may be prepared in a one-pot method. The reactions in this section include transformation of several compounds into their respective oxidative products with the metal-free one-pot oxidative.
