| Investigating the co-catalytic behavior of anthraquinones as a means in the oxidation of hydrocarbons. Our focus in this experiment is on the use of anthraquinones, mainly various pyridinium species, in conjunction with the catalyst N-hydroxphthalimide in oxidation reactions using dioxygen as the reagent. Implications of this research are very valuable in enabling a greener method for oxygenation, which could further be applied to industry. |
