Abstract
The electrochemically one-electron oxidized copper(II) complex of N, N '-bis droxy-3,5-di-tert-butylbenzyl)-1,2-ethylenediamine catalyses, in the presence of KOH at room temperature, the oxidation of primary alc ohols into aldehydes (turnovers > 30); secondary alcohols are not oxid ized under the same conditions.
