Collins oxidation

The Collins oxidation is an organic reaction for the oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes. It is distinguished from other chromium oxide-based oxidations by the use of Collins reagent, a complex of chromium(VI) oxide with pyridine in dichloromethane.[1][2]

This article is about the oxidation reaction. For the oxidizing reagent, see Collins reagent.
