| Hypervalent iodine compounds (e.g. o-iodoxybenzoic acid, IBX) have been widely utilized as oxidation reagents because of their efficiency, availability, and mild reaction conditions. Regioselective oxidation of substituted phenols utilizing IBX and polymer-supported IBX will be discussed. The resulting ortho-quinone can undergo an inverse electron demand hetero-Diels-Alder reaction with a variety of dienophiles in situ to generate a 1,4-benzodioxane scaffold, which is a core structure for a number of natural products.
