An Isolable and Bench-Stable Epoxidizing Reagent Based on Triazine: Triazox

A new triazine-based oxidizing reagent, 2-hydroperoxy-4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine (Triazox), has been developed. The reagent can be synthesized from inexpensive starting materials and is a bench-stable solid that is isolable in pure form. Epoxidation of alkenes possessing acid-sensitive functionalities using Triazox proceeded in good to excellent yields. The accompanying nonacidic triazinone coproduct can be easily removed by filtration. These features indicate that Triazox is a practically useful oxidizing reagent.

Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Synthesis of Aryl Formates under Mild Conditions

Aryl formates have been extensively applied as CO sources in CO-free carbonylation reactions. However, there are no catalytic synthetic procedures for their preparation. In this manuscript, we developed a convenient palladium-catalyzed procedure for the synthesis of aryl formates. Good yields were achieved under mild reaction conditions with formic acid as the formyl source. A formyl meeting: A convenient palladium-catalyzed carbonylation procedure for the synthesis of aryl formates is developed. Good yields are achieved under mild reaction conditions with formic acid as the formyl source.
