A. Chromium Based Reagents
General Mechanism: ! ! !
- 1° alcohols: under anhydrous conditions (Collins, PCC, PDC) will stop at aldehyde - in presence of aqueous acid (Jones), see further (rapid) oxidation to carboxylic acid - oxidation of 2° alcohols give ketones - these processes generate chromium waste (toxic)
