A Mild Oxidizing Reagent for Alcohols and 1,2-Diols: o-Iodoxybenzoic Acid (IBX) in DMSO

o-Iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) smoothly oxidizes primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively. 1,2-Diols are converted to α-ketols or α-diketones without any oxidative cleavage of the glycol C-C bond.IBX oxidations are easily conducted in DMSO solution at room temperature, with yields ranging from good to quantitative.

Hydroxylation of Δ5-Steroids with N-Bromosuccinimide to 5α,6β-Diols

The reaction of N-bromosuccinimide with Δ5-steroids such as, diosgenin, cholesterol, stigmasterol and dehydroisoandrosterone were studied.It was found that NBS in a solvent mixture of acetone, water and acetic acid (8:1:0.1) oxidises the olefinic bond of all the previous steroidal compounds to the corresponding transglycollic, 5α,6β-dihydroxylic products in about 60percent yield at room temperature. - Keywords: N-Bromosuccinimide, Δ5-Steroids, Diosgenin, Cholesterol, Stigmastane, Dihydroisoandrosterone
