摘要
A flow chemistry process for the Oppenauer oxidation of benzylic secondary alcohols using partially hydrated zirconium oxide and a simple carbonyl containing oxidant such as acetone, cyclohexanone, and neopentanal is reported. The heterogeneous oxidative system could be applied to a wide range of functionalized alcohol substrates, allowing clean and fast delivery of ketone products within a few minutes between 40 and 100 degrees C.
