Abstract

IBX derivative 6, synthesized in two steps from 2-aminoterephthalic acid, 8, is soluble in both DMF and water. A variety of alcohols are oxidized using 6 in DMF with ease and selectivity identical to that of parent IBX. However, oxidations carried out in water and other aqueous solvent mixtures using 6 exhibit unique selectivities toward different substrates and provide products different from reactions carried out in DMF. A mechanistic rationale is provided ...
