Abstract

The oxidation of alcohols was performed successfully in a disperse system with N-oxyl- adsorbed or immobilized silica gel as a disperse phase and aqueous NaOCl as a disperse medium. In the disperse system, the oxidation of sec-alcohols afforded the corresponding ketones, while prim-alcohols were oxidized to aldehydes and/or carboxylic acids depending on their structures and reaction conditions. The N-oxyl-immobilized silica gel was ...
