Abstract

A silica‐gel‐supported heterogeneous ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) reagent has been developed for oxidizing oxygenated aromatics to quinones in nonaqueous media. The advantages of this procedure include excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, nonaqueous media, short reaction times, and easy product isolation.
