Abstract

(±)-cis,cis4-Benzoyloxy-2,2,8a-trimethyldecahydroquinolinyl-N-oxyl reveals a reversible redox peak whose oxidation potential is at + 0.67 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The compound catalyzed the selective oxidation reactions of primary and secondry alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, in high current efficiency (86.4-92.7 %) and selectivity (100 %).
