Abstract
A new dimethylsulfoxide activation method employing 1,1-dichlorocycloheptatriene has been developed for a mild Swern-type oxidation of a variety of alcohols. The carbonyl products can be obtained in good to excellent yields from this operationally simple and efficient method. This work is the first report of dimethylsulfoxide activation by a simple chlorinated hydrocarbon reagent, which has the unique ability of equilibrating to its reactive aromatic cationic form.
