Abstract
The MnO2 oxidation of codeine methyl ether, CME, to thebaine has been accomplished via the use of the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, bmimBF4. The ionic liquid has been used to remove or extract excess MnO2 and associated impurities from the reaction mixture to afford thebaine in 36 to >95% yield.
