Abstract

Novel polymer supported IBX esters and amides were prepared in two steps, which were the coupling of 2-iodobenzoic acid to a hydroxy or amino polystyrene followed by activation of the intermediate product. These polymer supported reagents were tested as oxidants by the conversion of a series of alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones. We found that the polymer supported IBX amides displayed excellent oxidative activity, in that they oxidized benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde completely within 1 h at an oxidant to alcohol ratio of 2 to 1.
