✦ Synopsis

The title compound was prepared and characterized by conventional methods. Its uses as stoichiometric oxidizing agent for a variety of organic compounds are described. With this reagent alcohols are converted to the corresponding carbonyl compounds. With 1,2-dioles C-C bond cleavage occurs. Decart~xylation of ot-hydroxy acids proceeds quantitatively. Also thiols are converted to disulfides, hydroxy phenols to quinones, benzylamines to carbonyl compounds, tertiaryamiues to the N-oxides, phosphines to phosphine oxides, sulfides to sulfoxides, and anthracene and phenanthrene to quinones. Deprotection of oximes and oxidative deprotection of silyl ethers proceed easily.
