Aerobic Oxidation of Benzylic Halides to Carbonyl Compounds with Molecular Oxygen Catalyzed by TEMPO/KNO2in Aqueous Media
摘要:
Benzylic halides were successfully oxidized to the corresponding aldehydes and ketones in good to excellent yields in aqueous media with molecular oxygen as oxidant in the presence of catalytic amounts of TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidyl-1-oxy) and potassium nitrite (KNO2).
