Copper and manganese: two concordant partners in the catalytic oxidation of p-cresol to p-hydroxybenzaldehyde.
Copper and manganese were found to be two concordant partners in the synthesis of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde from p-cresol; under mild conditions, this research realised 95.6% selectivity for p-hydroxybenzaldehyde at 98.5% conversion of p-cresol.
