This article reviews the oxidation of organic compounds carried out with either sodium perborate or sodium percarbonate as an oxygen source. Special attention is drawn to the differences in results provided by these two oxidants and to the influence of experimental conditions.

The potential and the efficiency of these two peroxygen compounds towards the oxidation of organic compounds is described.
