tosyloxylation of acetophenones

smartgene1 - 8-5-2017 at 19:57

hello everybody
   i want to know some of the methods for doing alpha tosylation of acetophenones......many methods that i had searched uses hypervalent iodine reagents like Koser's reagent(HTIB) and IBX with PTSA. These methods though good but very expensive, so i need some methods which do not use hypervalent iodine reagents.
