Abstract

Ketones occupy pivotal positions as intermediates as well as final products in the synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutical materials. Traditional alcohol oxidation requires stoichiometric amounts of inorganic oxidants, notably chromium reagents, with concomitant formation of copious heavy-metal waste.(1) Recent advances in oxidation catalysts allow clean alcohol oxidation with molecular oxygen; (2) however, these processes require noble metal catalysts. ...
