Abstract
Abstract Preparation of barium ferrate monohydrate with a slight modification is described. It is shown that this reagent is capable of oxidizing different organic compounds and could be used as a versatile reagent in organic synthesis. Primary and secondary alcohols are converted to their carbonyl compounds, α-hydroxy ketones to their diketones, and hydroquinones to their quinones. Aromatic amines are converted to their azo compounds, benzylamine to benzaldehyde, phenylhydrazones and oximes to their carbonyl compounds. Thiols are also converted to their disulfides in high yields. This reagent seems to be a non-toxic and a non-pollutant compound.
