Abstract

The synthesis of amino diol 2 in several steps from amino alcohol 5 allows the incorporation of the tridentate ligand in a pentacoordinate iodine species. This tridentate ligand provides stability to a hypervalent system due to its various structural features, including the five- membered rings. As a result, difluoroperiodinane 4 is isolated when iodo diol 10 is treated with 2 equiv of bromine trifluoride. This periodinane, which is a strong oxidizing reagent, ...
