The versatile application of different functional groups such as alcs. (1° and 2°), alkyl arenes, and (aryl)olefins to construct carbon-oxygen bond via oxidation is an area of intense research. Here, a reusable heterogeneous V2O5@TiO2 catalyzed selective oxidation of various functionalities utilizing different mild and eco-compatible oxidants under greener reaction conditions has been reported. The method was successfully applied for the alc. oxidation, oxidative scission of styrenes, and benzylic C-H oxidation to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones. The utilization of mild and eco-friendly oxidizing reagents such as K2S2O8, H2O2 (30% aqueous), TBHP (70% aqueous), broad substrate scope, gram-scale synthesis, and catalyst recyclability are notable features of the developed protocol. The experimental procedure involved many compounds, such as rel-(1R,2S)-1,2-Diphenylethane-1,2-diol (cas: 579-43-1) .

Conversion of meso-hydrobenzoin to trans-stillbene oxide by treatment with an aryl sulfonyl chloride and aqueous sodium hydroxide has been reported.
