The efficient oxidation of mono-, di-, tri-, and perfluoroalkyl-substituted carbinols has been accommplished by the Dess-Martin periodinane oxidant.A variety of functional groups are compatible with the oxidation procedure.Monitoring the oxidation by 19F NMR indicated that a discreet periodinane intermediate is formed during the course of the reaction.Nonnucleophilic or sterically encumbered α-thiofluoro carbinols were readily oxidized; however, a nucleophilic α-thio-substituted trifluoromethyl carbinol was not.A tert-butyl alcohol modified periodinane oxidant was ultimately employed to achieve oxidation in this example.
