Oxidation of Benzylic Alcohols and Lignin Model Compounds with Layered Double Hydroxide Catalysts

Alcohol oxidation to carbonyl compounds is one of the most commonly used reactions in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report the use of base metal layered double hydroxide (LDH) catalysts for the oxidation of benzylic alcohols in polar solvents. These catalysts are ideal reagents for alcohol oxidati...
