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:
“A set of ideas, a point of view, a frame of reference is in space only an intersection, the state of affairs at some given moment in the consciousness of one man or many men, but in time it has evolving form, virtually organic extension. In time ideas can be thought of as sprouting, growing, maturing, bringing forth seed and dying like plants.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
