Abstract

Abstract : The effect of varying the counterion in the oxoammonium salt mediated oxidation of alcohols has been probed. Computational and experimental results suggest that the counterion is non‐innocent in oxoammonium salt mediated oxidations and the outcome of the reaction is related, at least in part, to the ability of the hydrogen‐bond accepting nature of the anion. Abstract : Anions make a difference: The effect of varying the counterion in the oxoammonium salt mediated oxidation of alcohols has been probed both computationally and experimentally.
