Abstract
This paper presents a novel Na2WO4-H2O2 oxidation system. The oxidation of alcohol to ketone or aldehyde was carried out by using N,N-dimethylacetamide, hydrogen peroxide, and a catalytic amount of disodium tungstate dihydrate under neutral conditions. This method is very simple, practical for large-scale manufacturing, and applicable to a variety of substrates including an acid-sensitive substrate. Disodium tetraperoxotungstate dihydrate (Na2[W(O2)4]·2H2O) was isolated from a mixture of N,N-dimethylacetamide, hydrogen peroxide, and disodium tungstate dihydrate, and a proposal reaction mechanism is discussed in this paper.
