Abstract

Bis(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl) tellurone (Tip2TeO2) was prepared, fully characterized by spectroscopic and X-ray crystallographic analyses, as well as theoretical calculations, and found to be an effective oxidizing agent that was capable of converting alcohols into carbonyl compounds under mild reaction conditions.
