Synthesis and reactions of N-methylbenzylammonium fluorochromate(VI) on silica gel, a selective and efficient heterogeneous oxidant.
N-Methylbenzylammonium fluorochromate(VI) (MBAFC) is easily synthesized by addition of N-methylbenzylamine to an aqueous solution of CrO3 and HF. MBAFC shows selectivity in the oxidation of aryl alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones under mild conditions. The durability, ease of work up and efficiency of MBAFC are considerably increased upon its absorption on silica gel.
Tetramethylammonium fluorochromate(VI): a new and efficient oxidant for organic substrates
Abstract Tetramethylammonium fluorochromate(VI), (CH3)4N+CrO3F− (TMAFC), was prepared and used for quantitative oxidation of several organic substrates. This new compound is more efficient and has certain advantages over similar oxidizing agents in terms of the amount of oxidant and solvent required, short reaction times and high yields.
Catalytic removal of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ether by PVP-I
Abstract A mild, efficient and rapid protocol the deprotection of alcoholic TBDMS ethers using PVP-1 as catalyst in methanol, the procedure of deprotection of various TBDMS ethers were found to be very convenient, easy work-up, high yielding.
