Abstract
(+/-)-cis, cis-4-Benzoyloxy-2, 2, 8a-trimethyldecahydroquinolinyl-N-oxyl re veals a reversible redox peak whose oxidation potential is at + 0.67 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The compound catalyzed the selective oxidation reactions of primar y and secondry alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, in high cur rent efficiency (86.4-92.7 %) and selectivity (100 %).
