An efficient procedure for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, with molecular oxygen under ambient conditions has been achieved. By applying catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 in the presence of tertiary phosphine oxides (OPR3) as ligands, a variety of substrates are selectively oxidized without formation of ester byproducts.

A catalytic system has been developed for the efficient synthesis of tertiary arylphosphine oxides by coupling of readily available secondary phosphine oxides with aryl bromides or iodides in the presence of copper(I) iodide as a catalyst and (S)-α-phenylethylamine as a ligand. The system exhibits high activity in the coupling of secondary diaryl-, alkylaryl- and dialkylphosphine oxides.
