Pinnick Oxidation
« on: May 12, 2015, 02:01:08 PM »
Does anyone have a well tested procedure?  I have the original paper by Pinnick.  Just wondering if someone has a reference for a scavenger other than 2-methyl-2-butene that works well.

Cheers

Actually found a reference using oxone in DMF.  May try that.

Like you pointed out, alter the oxidant not the scavenger.  There are alternative possibilities that may not require a scavenger/oxidant-scavenger combo that works.

I agree.  It is a transformation I have never done.  If I am going to an acid it is usually from an alcohol.
