Kinetics and Oxidation of Substituted Benzyl Alcohols by Phenyliodoso Acetate

Oxidation of benzyl alcohol and some meta- and para- substituted alcohols by phenyliodoso acetate (PIA) in t-butyl alcohol–water medium (50:50) leads to the formation of corresponding benzaldehyde. The stoichiometry of the reaction was found to be 1:1. The reaction was first order each in substrate...
