Abstract
A heterogeneous palladium(II) acetate-pyridine complex supported by hydrotalcite catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of a variety of primary and secondary alcohols into the corresponding aldehydes and ketones in high yields using atmospheric pressure of air as a sole oxidant under mild conditions in toluene.
