Abstract
The Ru(III) Schiff base complex, [Ru(L)Cl-2]Cl; L = bis(picolinaldehyd e) omicron-phenylenediimine, catalyzes the oxidation of secondary alco hols by N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide(NMO) or thallium(III) acetate as ox idant. Kinetic studies showed the formation of Ru(V) species as the ac tive intermediate. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons. Inc.
