Abstract
Some nickel, copper, and silver salts or complexes are efficient catal ysts for the oxidation of benzylic ethers with oxygen in 1,2-dimethoxy ethane. Salts of the weakly coordinating anion trifluoroacetate are pa rticularly efficient, approaching (and, in some cases, improving) the yields obtained with cobalt(II) chloride, the best catalyst so far rep orted.
