  2. Jones oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_oxidation

    For oxidations to the aldehydes and ketones, two equivalents of chromic acid oxidize three equivalents of the alcohol: 2 HCrO 4 − + 3 RR'C(OH)H + 8 H + + 4 H 2 O → 2 [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 3+ + 3 RR'CO. For oxidation of primary alcohols to carboxylic acids, 4 equivalents of chromic acid oxidize 3 equivalents of the alcohol. The aldehyde is an ...

  3. Collins reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collins_reagent

    Collins reagent is especially useful for oxidations of acid sensitive compounds. Primary and secondary alcohols are oxidized respectively to aldehydes and ketones in yields of 87-98%. [5] Like other oxidations by Cr(VI), the stoichiometry of the oxidations is complex because the metal undergoes 3e reduction and the substrate is oxidized by 2 ...

  4. Collins oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collins_oxidation

    The Collins oxidation is an organic reaction for the oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes. It is distinguished from other chromium oxide-based oxidations by the use of Collins reagent, a complex of chromium(VI) oxide with pyridine in dichloromethane. [1] [2] Mechanism of the Collins oxidation [3]

  5. Chromium trioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_trioxide

    In these oxidations, the Cr(VI) converts primary alcohols to the corresponding carboxylic acids and secondary alcohols to ketones. The reactions are shown below: Primary alcohols to carboxylic acids 4 CrO 3 + 3 RCH 2 OH + 12 H + → 3 RCOOH + 4 Cr 3+ + 9 H 2 O; Secondary alcohols to ketones 2 CrO 3 + 3 R 2 CHOH + 6 H + → 3 R 2 C=O + 2 Cr 3 ...

  6. Oxidation with chromium(VI) complexes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_with_chromium(VI...

    Enones can be synthesized from tertiary allylic alcohols through the action of a variety of chromium(VI)-amine reagents, in a reaction known as the Babler oxidation. The reaction is driven by the formation of a more substituted double bond. (E)-Enones form in greater amounts than (Z) isomers because of chromium-mediated geometric isomerization ...

  7. Alcohol oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_oxidation

    Alcohol oxidation is a collection of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters. The reaction mainly applies to primary and secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols form ketones, while primary alcohols form aldehydes or carboxylic acids. [1] A variety of oxidants can be used.

  8. Sarett oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarett_oxidation

    The Sarett oxidation is an organic reaction that oxidizes primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, using chromium trioxide and pyridine.Unlike the similar Jones oxidation, the Sarett oxidation will not further oxidize primary alcohols to their carboxylic acid form, neither will it affect carbon-carbon double bonds. [1]

  9. Chromic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromic_acid

    Chromic acid in aqueous sulfuric acid and acetone is known as the Jones reagent, which will oxidize primary and secondary alcohols to carboxylic acids and ketones respectively, while rarely affecting unsaturated bonds. [12] Pyridinium chlorochromate is generated from chromium trioxide and pyridinium chloride.
