New aerobic oxidation of benzylic compounds: efficient catalysis by N-hydroxy-3,4,5,6-tetraphenylphthalimide (NHTPPI)/CuCl under mild conditions and low catalyst loading.
Efficient aerobic oxidation of benzylic compounds using NHTPPI, a new NHPI analogue, as a key catalyst combined with CuCl, have been achieved under mild conditions and using as little as 1 mol% catalyst.
