Ammonium nitrate as an efficient and green reagent for the oxidation of alcohols into their corresponding carbonyl compounds in the presence of heteropoly acids %K alcohols %K heteropoly acids %K Oxidation %K Heterogeneous catalyst %K ammonium nitrate %K energetic materials %R %X Simple, cheap and green protocol for effective conversion of alcohols to corresponding carbonyl compounds in the presence of H14[NaP5W30O110] and ammonium nitrate is reported. The products were characterized by FT-IR and comparison of their physical properties with those reported in the literatures. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) technique. The aliphatic products were detected by gas chromatography–flame ionization detector. Reactions were completed within 15-35 minutes at room temperature. In order to investigate the catalyst reusability, the oxidation of benzyl alcohol was carried out in the presence of H14[NaP5W30O110]. At the end of each reaction, the catalyst was separated and the recovered catalyst was reused for at least three runs without significant degradation in catalytic activity and performance. %U https://icc.journals.pnu.ac.ir/article_1195_4f7fb960d824553ebe3ce1d1d1cbbee8.pdf
