Abstract

A combination of 4-MeO-TEMPO/PEG-NO2/HCl for catalytic aerobic oxidation of alcohol is described. A wide range of alcohols was efficiently oxidized to the corresponding carbonyl compounds by using this oxidation system and the turnover number (TON) for benzyl alcohol oxidation reached up to 56000.

Key words

alcohol oxidation - PEG-NO2 - 4-MeO-TEMPO - dioxygen - efficient
