Abstract
An additive is the key to success: Catalytic amounts of N-methylimidazole are crucial for the aerobic oxidation of primary aliphatic alcohols in the presence of CuCl, 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate (DBAD). This reaction, under neutral conditions, yields the aldehydes quantitatively and selectively without overoxidation to the carboxylic acids.
