Abstract

An efficient protocol for the oxidation of secondary and primary alcohols to the corresponding ketones and aldehydes and/or carboxylic acids using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant is described. A quasi-homogenous reaction system was obtained by t-butanol as solvent to achieve high yield of the product in short time.

Key words

oxidation - alcohols - hydrogen peroxide - sodium tungstate - phase transfer catalyst
