Oxidations osmium tetroxide

Other examples are the use of osmium(VIII) oxide (osmium tetroxide) as catalyst in the titration of solutions of arsenic(III) oxide with cerium(IV) sulphate solution, and the use of molybdate(VI) ions to catalyse the formation of iodine by the reaction of iodide ions with hydrogen peroxide. Certain reactions of various organic compounds are catalysed by several naturally occurring proteins known as enzymes. [Pg.19]

Whereas hydrolysis of epoxides leads to the trans diaxial addition of water and the formation of trans glycols (1,2-diols), cis glycol formation involves the addition of osmium(VIII) oxide (osmium tetroxide, OsO ) or cold dilute aqueous potassium manganate(Vll) (potassium permanganate) to an alkene.

Sulfones are valuable intermediates for the synthesis of chemically and biologically useful molecules. Traditionally, they are prepared by oxidation of sulfides with nitric acid, KMnO, MnO, NaClO, m-chloroperbenzoic acid, sodium metaperiodate, bromine, dinitrogen tetraoxide, oxaziri-dine, benzeneseleninic peracid, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, sulfinyl peroxy compounds, iodosobenzene diacetate and 4-methylmorpholine N-oxide/ osmium tetroxide.
