Abstract
In this paper, we present an efficient and practical method for oxidation of alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds catalyzed by [Mn(salophen)@nSTD]. This catalyst was synthesized, and characterized by FT-IR, UV–Vis, TGA, SEM and TEM. The results of experiments proved that this catalyst has excellent selectivity and high activity in the oxidation of different primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehyde and ketone at room temperature. The effects of important factors in the oxidation of alcohols such as kind of oxidant, solvent and amount of catalyst were investigated in the oxidation of 4-chlorobenzyl alcohol. This catalyst shows high stability and reusability after six catalytic runs.
