Visible light mediated selective oxidation of alcohols and oxidative dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles using scalable and reusable La-doped NiWO4 nanoparticles

Visible light-mediated selective and efficient oxidation of various primary/secondary benzyl alcohols to aldehydes/ketones and ODH of partially saturated heterocycles using a scalable and reusable heterogeneous photoredox catalyst are described.
