TPAP,NMMO : mecanism
« on: April 07, 2006, 01:28:00 PM »
Hello,

Another question of mechanism, do you have an idea of the mechanism of a primary alcohol oxyded to an acid via the catalytic couple TPAP/NMMO

The mechanism of this reaction isn't know.  You could draw a mechanism similar to the oxidation of alcohols by chromium species, but some research on the TPAP system has suggested that the oxidation may occur through a radical process.
