Abstract
The trans-dioxo ruthenium (VI) complex, [P(C6H5)(3)C6H5CH2](+)[Ru(O)(2 )OAcCl2](-) or tetrapropylammonium perruthenate catalyzes the oxidatio n of secondary alcohols to ketones by N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO) . Kinetic studies showed the formation of a complex between catalyst a nd substrate (alcohol) as the first step in the mechanism.
