The oxidation of secondary alcohols and primary alcohols with novel ion-supported (diacetoxyiodo)benzenes (IS-DIB) in the presence of a catalytic amount of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxy radical (TEMPO) in dichloromethane at room temperature proceeded efficiently to provide the corresponding ketones and aldehydes, respectively, in good yields with high purity. Isolation of the product was easily accomplished by simple diethyl ether extraction of the reaction mixture and subsequent removal of the solvent from the extract. Moreover, ion-supported iodobenzenes, which were co-products derived from IS-DIB in the present oxidation, were recovered in good yields and could be re-oxidized to IS-DIB for reuse in the same oxidation.
