Abstract

The Hofmann-type rearrangement of aromatic and aliphatic imides using a hypervalent iodine(III) reagent generated in situ from PhI, m-CPBA, and TsOH·H(2)O proceeded in the presence of a base in alcohol to provide anthranilic acid derivatives and amino acid derivatives in high yields, respectively. This reaction proceeds through a tandem reaction via alcoholysis followed by a Hofmann rearrangement promoted by the formation of an imide-λ(3)-iodane intermediate.
