Abstract
In the presence of copper (I) chloride, tert-butyl 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-1H- indole-3-carboxylate acted as a catalyst for the chemoselective aerobic oxidation of allylic and benzylic alcohols. A variety of primary and secondary allylic and benzylic alcohols were oxidized into the corresponding α, β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in good yields without affecting non-allylic alcohols.
