Abstract

Abstract Imines are very important compounds in organic synthesis, and therefore, their preparation under mild conditions has attracted much attention. In this study, it was found that copper sulfate effectively catalyzes the highly selective oxidation of benzylamines to the corresponding imines with H 2 O 2 in water at room temperature for 1.5 h. This mild and eco-friendly oxidation method could be applied to the oxidation of alkylamines. Therefore, a convenient procedure for the oxidation of amines to the imines has been developed.
