Abstract

The Swern oxidation of various benzylic and allylic alcohols, primary alcohols, and secondary alcohols with two ion-supported methyl sulfoxides A-1 (C6) and B-1 (C10), and oxalyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine in dichloromethane, followed by simple diethyl ether extraction of the reaction mixture, gave the corresponding aldehydes and ketones, respectively, in good yields with high purity. Similarly, the Corey–Kim oxidation of various benzylic and allylic alcohols, primary alcohols, and secondary alcohols with two ion-supported methyl sulfides A-2 (C6) and B-2 (C10), and N-chlorosuccinimide in the presence of triethylamine in dichloromethane, followed by simple diethyl ether extraction of the reaction mixture, furnished the corresponding aldehydes and ketones, respectively, in good yields with high purity. Both reactions did not produce any unpleasant odor at all. In the Swern oxidation, ion-supported methyl sulfides were recovered in high yields and could be re-oxidized to produce ion-supported methyl sulfoxides A-1 (C6) and B-1 (C10), for reuse in the same oxidation. In the Corey–Kim oxidation, ion-supported methyl sulfides A-2 (C6) and B-2 (C10) were recovered in high yields and could be also reused for the same oxidation.
