Oxidation with Nickel Peroxide. I. Oxidation of Alcohols

Abstract: Nickel peroxide, readily obtainable by the treatment of nickel salts with sodium hypochlorite in alkaline solution, was shown to be a useful oxidizing agent for several types of organic compounds. Thus the oxidation of primary alcohols with nickel peroxide in an aqueous alkaline solution afforded the corresponding carboxylic acids, while carbonyl compounds were obtained on oxidation of primary or secondary alcohols by this reagent in organic solvents.

Thiosugars. I. Synthesis of Derivatives of 2-Amino-2-deoxy-1-thio-D-glucose1

Abstract: A range of derivatives of 2-amino-2-deoxy-l-thio-Dglucose, with removable blocking substituents at the amino and thiol groups, was synthesized by condensation of amino sugar glycosyl halides with thiourea, potassium thiolacetate, or potassium ethylxanthate.
