Carbonyl compounds from the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols are widely used as precursors and intermediates for many drugs, vitamins and fragrances. Traditional oxidants are toxic and release many by-products, and so the search for novel environmentally benign procedures for the oxidation of alcohols is a vital area of research. This book aims to give an overview of the aerobic oxidation of alcohols catalyzed by transition metals, and will cover the most important advances in the last fifteen years. Following an introductory chapter on homogeneous-, heterogeneous- and nano-catalysis, use of copper, ruthenium, palladium, gold, vanadium and iron will be discussed in turn. The book will conclude with a useful overview that includes representative experimental procedures, and will provide a valuable reference to organic chemists and green chemists in academia and industry.
