Abstract

Oxidations are important transformations in organic synthesis. In general, many oxidations are carried out with a large excess of chromium or manganese reagents. The metal residues are environmentally undesirable and often cause problems during work-up. 2 In addition organic oxidations in the chemical industry have traditionally been performed in either aromatic or halogenated solvents.'One of the most attractive oxidants is molecular oxygen ...
