Facile reductive coupling of benzylic halides is reported with ferrous oxalate dihydrate in DMF or HMPA under nitrogen atmosphere at 155-160°C. The coupling is proposed to proceed by two successive oxidative additions of benzylic halides to ferrous oxalate to give an intermediate organoiron complex which undergoes concerted dimerization to give the corresponding reductively coupled dimers in high yields.
ELECTRON TRANSFER ACTIVATION. HYDROPEROXIDE INTERMEDIATES IN A NOVEL AND SELECTIVE PROCEDURE FOR BENZYLIC OXIDATIONS.

A selective and mild photochemical procedure for benzylic oxidations with 9,10-dicyanoanthracene (DCA) an usual electron acceptor, in the presence of methyl viologen (MV2+), an electron relay, has been developed.Methyl and methylene groups are oxidized in good to excellent yields to the corresponding hydroperoxides.
FORMATION OF MONOALDEHYDES BY CERIUM(IV) AMMONIUM NITRATE OXIDATION OF UNSYMMETRIC DIMETHYLNAPHTHALENES

When 1,2-,1,3-and 1,6-dimethylnaphthalene are oxidized by Ce(4+) in acetic acid the corresponding monoaldehydes are formed in better than 80percent yield.In each case aldehyde formation takes place with a high degree of selectivity as the methyl-1-to methyl-2-naphthaldehyde ratio is better than 11:1.The selectivity may be explained from differences in reactivity as calculated within the frontier orbital method.
