Abstract
(Diacetoxyiodo)benzene (DIB) selectively oxidizes primary and secondary alcohols to the respective carbonyl compounds in the presence of RuCl3 (0.8–1.0 mol %) at room temperature in aqueous acetonitrile. This reaction proceeds via an initial instantaneous Ru-catalyzed disproportionation of DIB to iodobenzene and iodylbenzene with the latter acting as the actual stoichiometric oxidant toward alcohols.
