Abstract
The preparation of allyltriphenylphosphonium peroxodisulfate (ATPPD) as a new and efficient reagent for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols, trimethylsilyl and tetrahydropyranyl (THP) ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds in refluxing acetonitrile with 1.1:1 molar equivalents of the oxidant is described.
