OXIDATION BY LEAD TETRAACETATE || CRIEGEE OXIDATION
Lead tetraacetate [Pb(OAc)4] is a commercially available crystalline solid used as a solution in acetic acid or benzene for the oxidation of organic compounds. Although lead tetraacetate may be employed for the oxidation of wide variety of organic compounds, its primary use is for the oxidative cleavage of 1,2-diols. Oxidative cleavage of diols, particularly vicinal …
