Polystyrene-supported isoxazolinium chromate and chlorochromate resins were prepared and developed as recyclable reagents for oxidation of alcohols to carbonyl compounds. Divinylbenzene (DVB) and ethylene glycoldimethacrylate (EGDMA) crosslinked polystyrene resins (2%) were used as the macromolecular supports. These insoluble Cr(VI) reagents were found to be selective in carrying out oxidation reactions. EGDMA-crosslinked polystyrene-supported reagents showed higher reactivity in terms of functional group capacity, reaction time and product yield. The spent reagent can be recycled and reused without appreciable loss of reactivity.
