A simple, rapid tandem mass spectrometric method for recognition of chiral molecules by proton transfer reactions with chiral sec-butylamines and sec-butanols is reported  

NaClO adsorbed on montmorillonite K10 converts alcohols and primary aliphatic amines into corresponding carbonyl compounds  

Iodic acid supported on wet silica gel and K10 clay are used for the efficient oxidation of benzylic alcohols under microwave irradiation and solvent free condition  

A heterogeneous recoverable catalyst was prepared via the complexation of palladium onto the surface of magnetic nanoparticles coated by a poly(1-vinyl imidazole) brush. The stable, active and reusable catalyst was proven to be highly active in aerobic oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols with excellent yields. Only 0.1 mol% of the catalyst was used to oxidize 1 mmol of primary and secondary alcohols. The catalyst was readily recovered and reused up to 10 times under the described reaction conditions without significant loss of activity  

Acyclic and cyclic acetates of various alcohols and phenols were obtained in excellent yields under mild reaction conditions in the presence of a catalytic amount of sodium hydroxide under solvent-free conditions and microwave irradiation. Selective deprotection of acetate group from the corresponding phenolic compounds was carried out in the presence of LiClO4· 2H2O. Copyright © Taylor & Francis, Inc  

Oxidative deprotection of silylethers, acetals and ketals, to their corresponding alcohols, aldehydes and ketones have been achieved using oxygen or air in the presence of cobalt and manganese salts of 4-aminobenzoic acid supported an silica gel as catalysts. Reactions are clean and catalysts can be recovered easily and reused repeatedly  

A novel combination between N-hydroxy phthalimide (NHPI) and a silica based cobalt (II) interphase catalyst (1) efficiently catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of various types of alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds. The catalyst 1 shows high thermal stability and also could be recovered and reused in combination with NHPI for at least five reaction cycles without considerable loss of reactivity. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

A novel method for extraction and analysis of volatile compounds of Artemisia haussknechtii Boiss., using simultaneous hydro-distillation and static headspace liquid microextraction followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SHD-SHLPME-GCMS) is developed. SHLPME parameters including nature of extracting solvent, headspace volume and design, extraction time, sample weight and microdrop volume were optimized. Comparison of hydro-distillation gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and HD-SHLPME-GCMS showed that the latter method is fast, simple, inexpensive and effective for the analysis of volatile compounds of aromatic plants. By using this method, 56 compounds were extracted and...
