Journal ArticleDOI
Convenient and inexpensive procedure for oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones
TL;DR: The crown ether-diazonium ion-crown ether complex was first proposed in this article, where the neck of the ion cation was inserted into a crown ether and the crown ether became symnietrical in the presence of 5 equiv of 18crown-6.
Journal ArticleDOI
Further studies on the utility of sodium hypochlorite in organic synthesis. Selective oxidation of diols and direct conversion of aldehydes to esters
TL;DR: Sodium hypochlorite in acetic acid solution selectively oxidizes secondary alcohols to ketones in the presence of primary alcohols and converts aldehydes to methyl esters in the added presence of methanol as discussed by the authors.
