One catalyst, two roles: VO(O2)2- reacts as a nucleophilic oxidant under acidic conditions towards benzyl alcohols. Altogether 15 alcohols have been oxidized, in the absence of organic solvent, in excellent yields. Benzyl halides are also oxidized by H2O 2 in water catalyzed by oxodiperoxovanadate and a phase transfer catalyst into aromatic aldehydes and ketones (see scheme). This reaction is the first green oxidation of benzyl halides.

An expeditious construction of a benzopyran skeleton via Lewis acid-catalyzed C-H functionalization was achieved. In this process, a [1,5] hydride shift and 6-endo cyclization successively occurred to give benzopyrans. The presence of substituents ortho to the alkoxy group significantly enhanced the reactivity, affording the desired compounds in excellent chemical yields with short reaction times.
