Palladium(II)-mediated oxidation of alcohols using 1,2-dichloroethane as Pd(0) reoxidant

The oxidation of primary and secondary, saturated, allylic or benzylic, alcohols is carried out in 1,2-dichloroethane at reflux using catalytic amounts of both PdCl2 and Adogen 464 in the presence of an excess of sodium carbonate. High selectivities are obtained from saturated and benzylic, secondary alcohols. Primary alcohols afford mixtures of aldehydes and esters. The migration of the double bond of α,β-unsaturated alcohols is a competing reaction. It is clearly shown that 1,2-dichloroethane reoxidizes the Pd(0) species.
CHROMIUMVI OXIDE - 70percent TERT.BUTYL HYDROPEROXIDE, A SIMPLE CATALYTIC SYSTEM FOR OXIDATION OF ALCOHOLS TO CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
Muzart, Jacques

Oxidation of alcohols to carbonyl compounds was carried out by using catalytic amounts of CrO3 and excess of aqueous t.BuOOH.This system is highly efficient in the case of secondary benzylic alcohols.A catalytic cycle which retains the initial oxidation state of chromium is proposed.
