1,2- and 1,3-Bis(trifluoroacetoxy) alcohols are easily obtained from the one-pot reaction of alkenes with phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA) in the absence of any additive or catalyst. The products were converted into the corresponding diols by ammonolysis. The use of bicyclic alkenes has shown that rearranged 1,3-diacetoxy alcohols are mostly formed as the major products.

1,2-Diols are extremely useful building blocks in organic synthesis. Hypervalent iodine reagents are useful for the vicinal dihydroxylation of olefins to give 1,2-diols under metal-free conditions, but strongly acidic promoters are often required. Herein, we report a catalytic vicinal dioxygenation of olefins with hypervalent iodine reagents using Lewis bases as catalysts. The conditions are mild and compatible with various functional groups.
