A new, highly selective synthesis of aromatic aldehydes by aerobic free-radical oxidation of benzylic alcohols, catalysed by n-hydroxyphthalimide under mild conditions. Polar and enthalpic effects

Abstract

A new selective synthesis of aromatic aldehydes is described, based on catalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohols with molecular oxygen at rt and atmospheric pressure.
