Green, Catalytic Oxidation of Alcohols in Water

*
Alcohol oxidations are typically performed with
stoichiometric reagents that generate heavy-metal waste and are usually
run in chlorinated solvents. A water-soluble palladium(II)
bathophenanthroline complex is a stable recyclable catalyst for the
selective aerobic oxidation of a wide range of alcohols to aldehydes,
ketones, and carboxylic acids in a biphasic water-alcohol system. The
use of water as a solvent and air as the oxidant makes the reaction
interesting from both an economic and environmental point of view.
