Used as a selective oxidizing agent in organic synthesis, particularly for the conversion of alcohols to carbonyl compounds. It is effective under mild conditions and shows good compatibility with sensitive functional groups. Often employed in the preparation of fine chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates where controlled oxidation is required. Its structure allows for stabilization of radical intermediates, making it useful in radical-mediated reactions. Also applied in catalytic systems combined with metal co-catalysts to enhance reaction efficiency and selectivity.
