This work describes the application of a multiphase system for the oxidation of alcohols to ketones or aldehydes, and the selective conversion of sulfides to sulfoxides or sulfones using Keggin-type heteropolyacids and hydrogen peroxide. Benzylic and secondary alcohols were oxidized to ketones or aldehydes at 70 °C in good yield and selectivity. Similarly, sulfides were converted to sulfoxides or sulfones at room temperature with high yields and selectivity.

Abstract

This work describes the application of a multiphase system for the oxidation of alcohols to ketones or aldehydes, and the selective conversion of sulfides to sulfoxides or sulfones using Keggin-type heteropolyacids and hydrogen peroxide. Benzylic and secondary alcohols were oxidized to ketones or aldehydes at 70 °C in good yield and selectivity. Similarly, sulfides were converted to sulfoxides or sulfones at room temperature with high yields and selectivity.
