HYPERVALENT IODINE(III) REAGENT-PROMOTED REARRANGEMENT AND SUBSEQUENT OXIDATIVE RING CLEAVAGE OF CYCLIC 2,3-EPOXY-1-ALCOHOL DERIVATIVES

摘要

The rearrangements of 2,3-epoxy alcohol derivatives were achieved using the hypervalent iodine(III) reagent,phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA).In the case of 2,3-epoxy alcohols subsequent oxidative ring cleavage occurred to give omega-formylalkanoic acids.
