Abstract

Abstract The calix[6]arene 1 bearing six trioxadecyl groups on the phenolic oxygens served as an effective catalyst for the oxidation of alkenes, alkynes, and alcohols with KMnO4 in CH2Cl2. The reaction of alkenes, alkynes, and primary alcohols gave carboxylic acids in high yields, but that of secondary alcohols gave ketones in high or moderate yields.
