Organic Oxidations
Several reaction mechanisms exist for organic oxidations:
- Single electron transfer
- Oxidations through ester intermediates with chromic acid or manganese dioxide
- Hydrogen atom transfer as in Free radical halogenation
- Oxidation with oxygen (combustion)
- Oxidation involving ozone in ozonolysis and peroxides
- Oxidations involving an elimination reaction mechanism such as the Swern oxidation, the Kornblum oxidation and with reagents such as IBX acid and Dess-Martin periodinane.
- oxidation by nitroxide radicals Fremy's salt or TEMPO

Famous quotes containing the word organic:
“When life has been well spent, age is a loss of what it can well spare,—muscular strength, organic instincts, gross bulk, and works that belong to these. But the central wisdom, which was old in infancy, is young in fourscore years, and dropping off obstructions, leaves in happy subjects the mind purified and wise.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
