The oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to the
corresponding carbonyl compounds is of fundamental importance in
organic synthesis, due to the wide use of these products as
precursors and intermediates for many drugs, vitamins and
fragrances. However, traditional oxidants are often toxic and
release considerable amounts of by-products. As an alternative,
oxygen is among the cheaper and less polluting stoichiometric
oxidants, and the implementation of a transition metal-based
catalyst in combination with oxygen represents an emerging
alternative to the traditional procedures. This book aims to give
an overview of the aerobic oxidation of alcohols catalyzed by
transition metals, and covers the most important advances in the
last fifteen years. Following an introductory chapter on
homogeneous-, heterogeneous- and nano-catalysis, use of copper,
ruthenium, palladium, gold, vanadium and iron are discussed in
turn. The book concludes with a useful overview that includes
representative experimental procedures. This book will provide a
valuable reference to organic chemists and green chemists in
academia and industry.
