Abstract

An efficient catalytic system salen-Mn(III)/NBS for oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones by inexpensive and readily available oxidizing agent NaOCl has been developed. The process resulted in good to excellent yields under the action of 2 mol % of salen-Mn(III) and 13 mol % of NBS at room temperature. However, such system was not efficient in oxidation of secondary benzyl alcohols with a strong electronicdonating substituent attached to the benzene ring due to bromination of the alcohols.
