Abstract

Abstract The oxidation with t-butyl chromate has been carried out with benzyl alcohol, its p-substituted derivatives and trans-cinnamyl alcohol, and also with β-phenylethyl alcohol. In the former alcohols, the corresponding aldehyde was obtained as the main product, but the corresponding ester was not formed. On the other hand, the latter alcohol, containing a methylene group adjacent to the hydroxymethyl group, produced the corresponding ester, aldehyde and acid, as in the case of a saturated primary aliphatic alcohol.
