Triacetoxyperiodinane → 5-(Methylsulfonyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carbaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (5-(methylsulfonyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl)methanol (1 g, 3.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (50 mL) was added Dess-Martin periodinane (2.4 g, 5.71 mmol). The reaction was stirred for 2 h at RT, then concentrated in vacuo and purified directly on normal phase silica gel to provide 5-(methylsulfonyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-carbaldehyde as a white solid.
