Dear Sirs,

I do not think, that links to extern chemical suppliers with "datasheets" and commercial informations are helpful to develop a scientific encyclopedia...

If one suppliers spreads his links everywhere, many others will follow developing wikipedia in a commercial link list.

Best regards

I have added some remarks, and I think wikipedias neutrality might be affected.


  • I disagree, I selected the links entirely based on their content, which I think is interesting to the reader. The problem often seen in Wikipedia is that editors leave a link to the company itself and not to specific information, that I would also consider just an ordinary commercial plug. Also your scientific encyclopedia also has 400 articles on the Simpsons and 20000 train station articles....... Cheers V8rik 16:50, 25 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

IUPAC Name[edit]

I believe a more appropriate IUPAC Name is:

1-hydroxy-1lambda~3~,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one 1-oxide —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChemSpiderMan (talkcontribs) 12:24, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Oxidative Cleaveage of Diols[edit]

This section is misleading. IBX is distinctive for NOT cleaving glycols! The paper and mechanism cited are for reactions run with a strong acid (TFA), which is unusual. I've changed the wording an organization to reflect that the oxidative cleavage is a variation. I welcome any commentary.

  1. A mild oxidizing reagent for alcohols and 1,2-diols: o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) in DMSO [[1]]
