Oxidation

Overview

The Jones oxidation is an organic reaction for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carboxylic acids and ketones, respectively. It is named after its discoverer, Sir Ewart Jones. The reaction was an early method for the oxidation of alcohols. Its use in organic chemistry has been displaced by related reagents such as the pyridine complex of chromium trioxide ("Collins reagent").
