Primary and secondary alcohols with benzylically and allylically activated C-H bonds are chemoselectively oxidized to the corresponding carbonyl compounds by the (salen)Cr(III) complex I as the catalyst and iodosobenzene as the oxygen source; the oxidizing species is the Cr(V) oxo complex. Allylic alcohols with fully substituted double bonds give appreciable amounts of epoxides besides the C-H oxidation products enones, while saturated alcohols are less readily oxidized.

Under microwave irradiation 3? molecular sieves promote the oxidation of secondary (linear and cyclic) and benzylic alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds by t-butyl hydroperoxide. Under the same conditions, α,β-unsaturated alcohols are converted into α,β-epoxyalcohols in regio- and diastereoselective way. Both oxidative processes can be performed under solvent-free conditions; however, epoxidation of allylic alcohols is found to proceed with more satisfactory efficiency in saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon (n-hexane or cyclohexane).
