Abstract

Abstract Oxone, in the presence of a catalytic amount of iron (II) sulfate and graphite oxide, oxidizes efficiently alcohols into their corresponding carboxylic acid or ketone compounds at room temperature in short reaction times and in good to quantitative yields under ultrasonic irradiation.
