Selective oxidation of a single primary alcohol function in oligopyridine frameworks.
A variety of mono-oxidized pyridine, bipyridine, terpyridine, and pyridine/pyridazine are readily prepared under mild conditions using Pyrolusite MnO2. This phase has been characterized by means of X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The oxidative activity is in keeping with the nature, morphology, and surface area of the MnO2 reagent.
