IBX-TfOH mediated oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones under mild reaction conditions
Kumar, Kamlesh Kumar, Prashant Joshi, Penny Rawat, Diwan S
An efficient, practical and facile procedure has been developed for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols using IBX-TfOH catalytic system in 1,4-dioxane at ambient temperature. The reaction affords quantitative yields of the corresponding carbonyl compounds without the formation of over oxidized products. The present synthetic protocol is compatible with a variety of substrates having arene, heteroarene and alkene functionalities. The developed synthetic protocol can be used for higher scale reactions as evident by the oxidation of alcohol at 1 g scale in higher yields by a simple filtration process.
Pd-nanoparticles stabilized by pyridine-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) as catalyst for the aerobic oxidation of α,β-unsaturated alcohols in water

The synthesis and coordination chemistry of 4-pyridinemethylene end-capped MeO-PEG (LPy) to Pd(II) was investigated. The PEG-based macroligand LPy was straightforwardly synthesized by pyridine end-functionalization of PEG monomethyl ether and employed to stabilize Pd(II) in a neutral (1a) and bis-cationic (2a) macrocomplex, characterized by a LPy to Pd molar ratio of 2 and 4, respectively. The homogeneous distribution of the Pd-NPs in 2b exerted a significant stabilizing effect on the poly(ether) chain of LPy against its oxidative thermal degradation. From a screening of the Pd(II)- and Pd-NP-based catalysts in the aerobic oxidation of unsaturated alcohols in water emerged 2b as the most stable catalyst, showing TOF-values up to 200-h and high chemoselectivity even for prolonged reaction times.
