title: The first example of catalytic N-oxidation of tertiary amines by tungstate-exchanged Mg-Al layered double hydroxide in water: a green protocol.
abstract: A green process, using a recyclable tungstate-exchanged Mg-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH-WO4(2-)) heterogenised catalyst and aqueous H2O2 oxidant in water, leads to N-oxidation of aliphatic tert-amines to amine N-oxides in quantitative yields, at a high rate at room temperature.
