Chromates [Oxidation]

Chromates [Oxidation] — gathers chromate and dichromate salts based on hexavalent chromium, paired with organic cations such as pyridinium, quinolinium, or tetrabutylammonium, as well as inorganic cations such as potassium. These compounds serve as selective oxidizing reagents for functional group transformations in organic synthesis.

Chromates [Oxidation] are commonly used in organic synthesis laboratories to oxidize primary alcohols to aldehydes or secondary alcohols to ketones without further oxidation to carboxylic acids, such as with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) or pyridinium dichromate (PDC). Organic chemists and synthesis methodology developers utilize variations of cations and solvent conditions within this group to control the selectivity and rate of oxidation reactions.

Item selection should consider the type of counter-cation, as it affects solubility in organic solvents, the level of purity, and the physical form (powder or crystal), which affects ease of handling in the laboratory. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
