Magnesium oxide supported nano-gold catalyst (prepared by the homogeneous deposition precipitation technique) showed high activity/selectivity and excellent reusability in the oxidation of different primary alcohols and aldehydes to corresponding aldehydes and carboxylic acids, respectively, by molecular oxygen (under atmospheric pressure) in the absence of any solvent. Influence of the catalyst calcination temperature (400-900 °C), reaction temperature (50-120 °C) and use of different solvents (viz. toluene, p-xylene, DMF or DMSO) on the oxidation reaction has also been studied.
Rhodium-catalyzed synthesis of imines and esters from benzyl alcohols and nitroarenes: Change in catalyst reactivity depending on the presence or absence of the phosphine ligand

The [Rh(COD)Cl]2/xantphos/Cs2CO3 system efficiently catalyzes the reductive N-alkylation of aryl nitro compounds with alcohols by a borrowing-hydrogen strategy to afford the corresponding imine products in good to excellent yields. In the absence of xantphos, the [Rh(COD)Cl]2/Cs2CO3 catalytic system behaves as an effective catalyst for the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols to esters, with nitrobenzene as a hydrogen acceptor. The reactivity of the rhodium catalytic system can be easily manipulated to selectively afford the imine or ester.

The photolytic decay of a library of para-substituted dibenzylic sulfites has been evaluated by UV radiation in a Srinivasan-Griffin-Rayonet photochemical reactor in various deuterated solvents. The decay for each dibenzylic sulfite was examined with respect to Swain and Lupton's field constant, F. The rate of photolytic decay varies depending on the identity of the benzyl substituents. Furthermore, it has been observed that the solvent affects both the rate of sulfite photolytic decay as well as final product distribution.
