Silica chloride/ Hydrogen peroxide: Heterogeneous system for oxidation alcohols to corresponding carbonyl compounds

Hassan Hassani, Nooroalle Feizi, Hakimah Sharafi Nezhad

Primary and secondary benzylic alcohols are converted to their corresponding carbonyl compounds efficiently using heterogeneous system “silica chloride/ hydrogen peroxide”. In these reactions, further oxidation of the aldehyde to corresponding carboxylic acids was not observed.
