Abstract
The oxidation of primary, secondary, allylic, and aromatic alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds proceeds in high yield catalyzed by molybdenum(VI)-peroxo complex with H2O2 under solvent-free conditions. Secondary -OH group are selectively oxidized even in the presence of a primary -OH group. Products/catalyst separation can be easily carried out by simple extraction and the catalytic system can be reused without much loss of activity. Copyright © 2007 The Chemical Society of Japan.
