N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (Upjohn dihydroxylation) and K₃Fe(CN)₆/water. These reoxidants do not react with the alkenes on their own. Other osmium compounds can be used as catalysts, including osmate(VI) salts ([OsO₂(OH)₄)]^2-, and osmium trichloride hydrate (OsCl₃·xH₂O). These species oxidise to osmium(VIII) in the presence
