title: Novel polyaniline-supported molybdenum-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones.
abstract: [reaction: see text] Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones has been studied in high yields using molecular oxygen and a catalytic amount of 1 in toluene under stirring (ca. 100 degrees C). The reactions of primary alcohols are faster compared to secondary alcohols and the catalyst 1 can be recycled without loss of activity.
