Abstract

SAYYED-ALANGI, S. Zahra  and  BAEI, Mohammad T. N-Ethylbenzylammonium Fluorochromate (VI) Adsorbed on Silica Gel, a Mild and Selective Heterogeneous Reagent. J. Mex. Chem. Soc [online]. 2010, vol.54, n.4, pp.223-226. ISSN 1870-249X.

A mild and selective method for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones with N-ethylbenzylammonium fluorochromate (VI), EBAFC, is reported. Stability, reaction rate, ease of work-up and efficiency of the EBAFC are considerably increased upon its adsorption on silica gel. The N-emylbenzylammonium fluorochromate (VI) adsorbed on silica gel is inert to aldehydes, ketones, oximes, thiols, sulfides, phenols, pyrans, trimethylsilanes, malonates and thioacetamides.

Keywords : N-ethylbenzylammonium Fluorochromate (VI); Heterogeneous Oxidant; Alcohols; Aldehyde; Ketone.
