Abstract

An efficient and facile air oxidation of benzoins in the presence of the heterogeneous catalyst, Co3O4–CNTs nanocomposite, has been developed. It thus constitutes a very simple, clean, economical and selective method for the aerobic preparation of benzils from the corresponding benzoins. The catalyst can be re-used a number of times without losing its catalytic activity to a greater extent.
