Sweren oxidation, also known as Swern's reagent, is a common reaction in organic chemistry for converting alcohols into aldehydes or ketones. Other synonyms for Swern oxidation include Swern oxidation method, Swern oxidation reagents, and oxidation of alcohols by Swern's reagent. This reaction is typically conducted under mild conditions and has high selectivity for converting primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds. Other related reactions that are often used in conjunction with Swern oxidation include the Pinnick oxidation, Corey-Kim oxidation, and Dess-Martin oxidation. These reactions provide alternative routes for the conversion of alcohols to carbonyls and are widely studied in organic synthesis.
