Poly-alcohols Primary compounds

Terminally unsaturated fluonnated alkenoic acids can be obtained from poly-fluorocycloalkenes by reaction with potassium hydroxide m rert-butyl alcohol [24] (equation 26) The use of a tertiary alcohol is critical because primary and secondar y alcohols lead to ethers of the cycloalkenes The use of a polar aprotic solvent such as diglyme generates enols of diketones [26] (equation 27) The compound where...

Hydrogen attached to a tertiary hydrogen is most readily substituted secondary hydrogens are only very slowly replaced, while primary hydrogens are quite unreactive. Alkylaromatics react preferentially at the benzylic position. The reaction is accompanied by oxidation to yield carbonyl compounds, acids, and carbon oxides. Other main byproducts are nitrites, alcohols, and large quantities of poly-nitro compounds. 

When poly-hydroxy alcohols are oxidized the first product is a compound in which one of the alcohol groups has been oxidized either to aldehyde or to ketone depending on whether the alcohol group is primary or secondary. 

Poly(vinylpyridinium) chlorochromate (PVPCC) is obtained as a liright-orange solid by adding chromium trioxide and concentrated hydrochloric acid to an aqueous suspension of cross-linked poly(vinylpyridine) (PVP) resin (50-100 mesh). Oxidations of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds are carried out on heating with a slight excess of the resin at 75-80 °C. The reaction is best carried out in cyclohexane [612]. 

Oxidations Metal-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of organic compounds has been reviewed. Aerial oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols is mediated by TEMPO in the presence of HCl and NaN02- Secondary benzylic alcohols undergo aerial oxidation (or with r-BuOOH) based on catalysis by AuCl - neocuproine," but another report describes the oxidation of both primary and secondary alcohols (to acids and ketones, respectively) using nanoclusters of gold that are stabilized by poly(A-vinyl-2-pyrtolidone). ...
