The Burgess reagent ([methoxycarbonylsulfamoyl]triethylammonium hydroxide) has historically found utility as a dehydrating agent. Herein we show that, in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide, the Burgess reagent efficiently and rapidly facilitates the oxidation of a broad range of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones in excellent yields and under mild conditions, and can be combined with other transformations (e.g., Wittig olefinations). A mechanism similar to those described for the Pfitzner-Moffatt and Swern oxidations is proposed.
