Ds. Bose et P. Srinivas, A MILD AND VERSATILE METHOD FOR THE OXIDATIVE CLEAVAGE OF OXIMES AND TOSYLHYDRAZONES TO CARBONYL-COMPOUNDS, Synlett, (9), 1998, pp. 977
1-Hydroxy-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one 1-oxide (IBX) was found to be an e
fficient and selective reagent for the mild oxidative cleavage of the
C=N of oximes and tosylhydrazones to yield their corresponding carbony
l compounds rapidly at room temperature in high yields.
