Abstract
In the present study, a variety of benzyl alcohols are synthesized from corresponding benzoic acids employing TBHP/oxone and FeCl3 as an effective and selective catalyst under solvent free conditions. The conversion rate and yields of the products are significant. The advantages of the selected catalyst are: cheaply available and more selectivity of the product formations rather than the formation of any undesired byproducts. The synthesized compounds were tested for anti-oxidant activities.
