An iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of (alkyl)(aryl)azinylmethanes has been developed leading to tertiary alcohols in moderate to good yields. Hock rearrangement was identified as a major side reaction leading to a complex mixture of undesired products. Addition of thiourea sometimes allows inhibiting this side reaction and steers the reaction towards the desired products.

We developed an approach for direct selective hydroxylation of heterobenzylic methylenes to secondary alcohols avoiding overoxidation to ketones by using a KOBu-t/DMSO/air system. Most reactions could reach completion in several minutes to give hydroxylated products in 41-76% yields. Using DMSO-d6, this protocol resulted in difunctionalization of heterobenzylic methylenes to afford α-deuterated secondary alcohols (>93% incorporation). By employing this method, active pharmaceutical ingredients carbinoxamine and doxylamine were synthesized in two steps in moderate yields.
