1-Acetoxy-5-bromo-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one

1-Acetoxy-5-bromo-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one is a hypervalent molecule with reactive functional groups. It can form covalent bonds with a variety of substrates through the formation of 1,2-dihydroxyacetone, which is a reactive intermediate. Meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA) is an example substrate that reacts readily with 1,2-dihydroxyacetone to form an acetoxy group and produce benzene. This reaction is used in organic synthesis for the conversion of aldehydes to acetals or ketals. This compound also has immunoconjugate potential. The residue from long term studies on tissues and polymer matrices has been shown to be statistically significant. Monomers are vinyl ethers that are synthesized by reacting acetylene and ethylene oxide. Vinyl ethers have been used as monomers in the production of
