"SILICA GEL SUPPORTED JONES REAGENT (SJR):
A SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT REAGENT FOR OXIDATION
OF BENZYL ALCOHOLS TO BENZALDEHYDES"
mohammed hashmat ali, candace j wiggin
abstract: Jones reagent supported on silica gel (SJR) has been used for
oxidation of benzyl alcohols to the corresponding benzaldehydes in high yields
utilizing organic solvent. This newly developed reagent is easy to prepare and
use. SJR is also safer than the traditional Jones reagent.
Benzylalcohol -> Benzylaldehyde -> Phenyl2nitropropene -> Phenyl-2-propanone -> DL methamphatamine
To seperate the isomers could one wash the toulene/dlmeth with l-ascoibic acid then gas gas the d out with Hcl.
And yes nitroethane is available in any ammount OTC
