1-Benzyl-4-aza-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane dichromate (BAABCD) is a useful
reagent for selective conversion of oximes and semicarbazones to the corre
sponding carbonyl compounds. The reaction was carried out under solvent-fre
e conditions and in the presence of a catalytic amount of aluminum chloride
.
