Selective and efficient oxidation of aldehydes to their corresponding carboxylic acids using H2O2/HCl in the presence of hydroxylamine hydrochloride

A wide variety of aldehydes were efficiently converted to their corresponding carboxylic acids in high yields using H2O2/HCl in the presence of hydroxylamine hydrochloride. In addition, selective oxidation of aldehydes in the presence of other functional groups such as hydroxyl group, carbon-carbon double bond and other heteroatoms can be considered a noteworthy advantage of this method.
