Strong oxidizers

The higher chromium fluorides, CrFstrong oxidizing agents, immediately hydrolysed by water,... 

The -t-4 stale is stabilized in aqueous solution by fluoride ions. Cm02 and Cmp4 are formed by strong oxidation or the action of fluorine. 

H0S(0)200S(0)20H. Dibasic acid formed as salts by electrolysis of sulphates at low temperatures and high current density. The acid and persulphates are strong oxidizing agents ( "[S20a] to S04 -t-2 01 volts in acid) but the reactions are often slow. Compare permonosulphuric acid. 

The conversion of primary alcohols and aldehydes into carboxylic acids is generally possible with all strong oxidants. Silver(II) oxide in THF/water is particularly useful as a neutral oxidant (E.J. Corey, 1968 A). The direct conversion of primary alcohols into carboxylic esters is achieved with MnOj in the presence of hydrogen cyanide and alcohols (E.J. Corey, 1968 A,D). The remarkably smooth oxidation of ethers to esters by ruthenium tetroxide has been employed quite often (D.G. Lee, 1973). Dibutyl ether affords butyl butanoate, and tetra-hydrofuran yields butyrolactone almost quantitatively. More complex educts also give acceptable yields (M.E. Wolff, 1963). 

Tertiary alcohols are usually degraded unselectively by strong oxidants. Anhydrous chromium trioxide leads to oxidative ring opening of tertiary cycloalkanols (L.F. Fieser, 1948). 

In the presence of strong oxidizing agents at elevated temperatures oxidation of tertiary alcohols leads to cleavage of the various carbon-carbon bonds at the hydroxyl bearing carbon atom and a complex mixture of products results... 

A primary or secondary alkyl side chain on an aromatic ring is converted to a carboxyl group by reaction with a strong oxidizing agent such as potassium permanga nate or chromic acid... 

Polypropylene is translucent and autoclavable and has no known solvent at room temperature. It is slightly more susceptible to strong oxidizing agents than polyethylene.
