Abstract

An efficient procedure for oxidation of benzoins to corresponding benzils using chromium trioxide as an oxidant in dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature is described. The present oxidations are completed within 3 hours with the yields between 87 and 96%. The main advantage of this oxidation is that the reaction is carried out under homogeneous system with very mild conditions.
