VAZQUEZ SANCHEZ, Adrián  and  AVILA ZARRAGA, José Gustavo. Green Oxidation of Organic Compounds: Manganese Sulphate/Oxone®/Water. J. Mex. Chem. Soc [online]. 2007, vol.51, n.4, pp.213-216. ISSN 1870-249X.

We present a methodology for the oxidation of aromatic organic compounds based on manganese sulphate, Oxone® and water. The proposed method, which involves mild reaction conditions, was shown to produce various functional groups of interest in good yield, when applied to amines, alcohols and benzylic groups. This method has several advantageous characteristics, including low-cost reagents, aqueous reaction conditions, moderate temperatures, and short reaction times.

Keywords : Green oxidation; aromatic compounds; managanese sulphate; oxone; amines; alcohols; benzylic groups.
