Abstract
This work deals with the catalytic conversion of alcohols to aldehydes using a new support-nanocatalyst system consisting of chromium trioxide supported on nanostructured hydroxyapatite (Cr-NHAP). The oxidation reaction was carried out on a series of substituted benzylic alcohols under solvent-free microwave irradiation conditions. The obtained results showed high selectivity and high yield that was found to depend on the nature, the electronegativity and the position (para or meta) of the substituent on the aromatic cycle of the reagent.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
