Abstract

Oxidation of Xanthine alkaloid have been studied with various one and two electron oxidizing agents using PEGs and micelle forming surfactants. The reaction is too sluggish in solution phase, but moderately fast in presence of PEGs and micelles. However, the reactions are dramatically enhanced under...
