Abstract
3,6-Di(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (pytz) catalyzed oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds under visible light irradiation is described. This reaction occurs smoothly at room temperature and shows good tolerance of functional groups. It provides an alternative approach for the synthesis of alkyl and aryl aldehydes and ketones.
