phatic alcohols. The addition of a catalytic amount of TEM-
PO allowed the oxidation of primary aliphatic alcohols as
well as secondary allylic alcohols. The presence of a catalyt-
ic amount of bromide ions is useful to increase the conver-
sion, probably due to oxidation of TEMPOH to the oxoam-
monium salt mediated by acetyl hypobromite or bis(acyl-
oxy)bromate(I) anion. The use of unsupported
bis(acyloxy)bromate(I) anion allows the use of a minor
amount of BAIB with respect to the supported system21 and
avoids, in many cases, the use of TEMPO.

(27) Oxidation Procedure: Alcohol (1 mmol) was added to a
mixture of BAIB (1.1 mmol) and bromide anions (0.2 mmol) in
EtOAc (1.5 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room tempera-
ture for 24 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure
and the crude product was checked by 1H NMR spectroscopy. In
case of p-nitrobenzyl alcohol, anisole, and p-chlorobenzyl
alcohol oxidations, the residue was purified by chromatography
[PE to separate iodobenzene and PE–EtOAc (10:1) to separate
the corresponding aldehyde].
