We present protocols for the oxidation of alcohols and aldehydes and for the oxidative cyclization of diols which use a combination of Selectfluor and NaBr. For most substrates, the optimal solvent system is a 1:1 mixture of CHCN/HO, but, in select cases, biphasic 1:1 mixtures of EtOAc/HO or CHCl/HO are superior. This procedure is operationally simple, uses inexpensive and readily available reagents, and tolerates a variety of functional groups. Mechanistic studies suggest that the active oxidant is hypobromous acid, generated by the almost instantaneous oxidation of Br by Selectfluor in an aqueous milieu.
我们展示了使用Selectfluor和NaBr组合对醇和醛进行氧化以及对二醇进行氧化环化的方案。对于大多数底物,最佳溶剂体系是CHCN/H₂O的1:1混合物,但在某些情况下,EtOAc/H₂O或CHCl₃/H₂O的双相1:1混合物更优。该方法操作简单,使用廉价且易于获得的试剂,并且能耐受多种官能团。机理研究表明,活性氧化剂是次溴酸,它是由Selectfluor在水介质中几乎瞬间氧化Br⁻生成的。
