Abstract

Tetrapropylammonium bromochromate (VI), [N(Pr)4]CrO3Br, TPABC and tetrabutyl-ammonium bromochromate (VI), [N(Bu)4]CrO3Br, TBABC were prepared and used to quantitatively oxidizing of a number of organic substrates. These reagents are versatile reagents for the effective and selective oxidation of organic substrates, in particular for alcohols, under mild conditions.

 

Key words: Chromium(VI), reagent, tetrapropylammonium bromochromate, tetrabutylammo-nium bromochromate, oxidation, organic substrates, alcohols.
