title: Facile nitroxide-mediated oxidations of D-glucose to D-glucaric acid.
abstract: The oxidation of D-(+)-glucose to D-glucaric acid using the TEMPO-like nitroxide oxidation catalyst, 4-acetamido-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (4-acetamido-TEMPO) was carried out using several oxidizing agents and co-catalyst. The pH and temperature of the reactions were closely monitored to decrease degradations during the oxidation, and several isolation methods were explored.
