General description

Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP) is a hypervalent iodine compound widely used as a mild reagent for the oxidation of primary/secondary alcohols to aldehydes/ketones; oxidation of amides into imides; the dehydrogenation of amines to nitriles, and disulfides to sulfones. It is also used to selectively oxidize alkenes to epoxides. This is a useful reaction for generating three-membered cyclic ethers. Additionally, DMP is used to oxidatively cleave 1,2-diols to form aldehydes or ketones and in the synthesis of lactones.

Application

Dess–Martin periodinane is used as an oxidizing agent:
  • For 1° and 2° alcohols to aldehydes and ketones.
  • In the synthesis of N-protected α-amino aldehydes from the corresponding N-protected β-amino alcohols.[1]
  • To synthesize alkynyl oxoaldehyde probe (AlkMGO). [2]
Used for the oxidation of hydroxychlorins to chlorin-α-diones and tetraones.[3]

Features and Benefits

Benefits of using DMP as an oxidizing reagent:
  • milder reaction conditions (room temperature, neutral pH)
  • shorter reaction times and higher yields      
  • high chemoselectivity     
  • tolerance of sensitive functional groups, and a long shelf life
  • simplified workups

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
