Alcohol oxidations are typically performed with stoichiometric reagents that generate heavy-metal waste and are usually run in chlorinated solvents. A water-soluble palladium(II) bathophenanthroline complex is a stable recyclable catalyst for the selective aerobic oxidation of a wide range of alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids in a biphasic water-alcohol system. The use of water as a solvent and air as the oxidant makes the reaction interesting from both an economic and environmental point of view.
醇的氧化反应通常使用化学计量的试剂进行，这些试剂会产生重金属废物，并且通常在氯化溶剂中进行。水溶性钯（II）-二氮杂菲配合物是一种稳定的可循环催化剂，用于在双相水-醇体系中将多种醇选择性好氧氧化为醛、酮和羧酸。从经济和环境角度来看，使用水作为溶剂和空气作为氧化剂使该反应颇具吸引力。
