Primary nitro compounds RNO were oxidised to RCOOH (the Nef reaction, e.g. nitroethane to acetic acid, nitrohexane to hexanoic acid) by RuCl3/(Br03) /aq. M Naj(C03), activated primary alkyl halides RCl to RCOOH and secondary alkyl halides to ketones [213]. Corey used RuCl3/K3(S303)/aq. base pH 14 to oxidise a carbon-bearing nitro group to a carbonyl function as part of a total synthesis of antheridiogen (A, 2) [87]. [Pg.47]
