Abstract
A convenient and efficient protocol for the oxidation of secondary hydroxyl group to ketone using hydrogen peroxide–urea adduct and catalytic (CF3SO3)3La in ionic liquid has been developed. A number of 1,2-diols, α-hydroxyketones, and other aromatic and aliphatic secondary alcohols have been successfully oxidized to the corresponding ketones using this protocol in good yields and short reaction times.
