This book is dedicated to the thousands of scientists cited in the references that constructed our present knowledge on the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. Thanks to their collective eVort, the preparation of medicines, pesticides, colorants and plenty of chemicals that make life more enjoyable, is greatly facilitated.

Preface
There is natural selection in the synthetic organic laboratory. Successful reagents Wnd their way into specialized journals and tend to populate the researcher’s benches. Sometimes, old species like active manganese dioxide in the oxidation of unsaturated alcohols are so well adapted to a certain reaction niche that they remain unchallenged for a long time. On other occasions, a successful new species like Dess Martin’s periodinane enjoys a population explosion and very quickly inhabits a great number of laboratories. On the other hand, the literature is Wlled with promising new reagents that fell into oblivion
