Abstract
A sodium trifluoromethanesulfinate-mediated photocatalytic strategy for the aerobic oxidation of alcohols has been developed for the first time, and the photoredox aerobic oxidation of secondary and primary alcohols provided the corresponding ketones and carboxylic acids, respectively, in high to excellent yields.
