Abstract
Benzyltriphenylphosphonium peroxodisulfate is an easily prepared and s table reagent. It could be used as an oxidant under aprotic and nonaqu eous conditions in organic solvents. This reagent oxidizes different c lasses of alcohols to carbonyl compounds, thiols to disulfides, sulfid es to sulfoxides, oximes to carbonyl compounds and aromatic amines to azo compounds efficiently, alpha-Hydroxy carboxylic acids and phenylac etic acids undergo oxidative decarboxylation to produce carbonyl compo unds.
