A combination of low-valent ruthenium complexes and peroxides such as t-BuOOH and peracids serves as efficient catalytic systems for the oxidation of aromatic and aliphatic hydroxy compounds. The utility of these methods was demonstrated by the synthesis of acyl cyanides which are versatile synthetic intermediates. The principle of the catalytic oxidations with peracids lead to the novel and efficient method for aerobic oxidation of alcohols in the presence of aldehydes. This reaction is of importance in synthetic and large scale industrial processes and from environmental points of view. The present principle will provide new chemistry of oxidative transformations of various industrially important functional materials.
