    Solvent free permanganate oxidations
    (2012-11-21) Ahmad Shaabani; Donald G. Lee
    The oxidations of organic compounds by permanganate under solvent free conditions have been studied. Thiols and primary aromatic amines undergo oxidative coupling reactions to give disulfides and diazenes, respectively, sulfides are oxidized to sulfones, primary and secondary alcohols are converted to aldehydes and ketones, 1,4-diols and cyclic ethers give lactones and arenes are oxidized to the corresponding -ketones. The experimental procedure is simple and the products are easily isolated in good yields. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
