Trimethylsilyl chromates, prepared in situ from chromic anhydride and hexamethyl-disiloxane, are mild neutral and effective reagents for the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. We found that the use of a twofold excess of the reagent (calculated on the CrO/sub 3/) makes it possible to convert primary and secondary alcohols rapidly and with high yields into the corresponding aldehydes and ketones under extremely mild and neutral conditions.
