Mild and Efficient Deprotection of 1,3-Dithianes withN,N′- Diiodo-N,N′-1,2-Ethanediyl-Bis(p-Toluenesulphonamide)
Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society Vol. 52, No. 2, 327–330
Aliphatic and aromatic 1,3-dithiane are oxidized to the corresponding carbonyl compounds in good yields under mild conditions by N,N′-diiodo-N,N′-1,2-ethanediyl-bis(p-toluenesulphonamide) [NIBTS] and silver nitrate.
