1-Benzyl-4-aza-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane periodate (BAABCP) (1), re
adily prepared as an orange solid from commercially available DABCO (1
,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2]octane, performs oxidation in anhydrous conditi
ons. Under these conditions, the reagent converts phenylhydrazones, p-
phenylhydrazones, semicarbazones, and beta-keto sulfoxide hydrazones t
o the corresponding carbonyl compounds and beta-keto sulfoxides respec
tively, the yields and enantioselectivity are excellent.
