Which organic molecules can be oxidised?

Beschreibung

A super simple key to tell whether an alcohol, aldehyde, ketone or carboxylic acid can be oxidised or not. Much easier than learning that primary alcohols, secondary alcohols and aldehydes CAN whereas tertiary alcohols, ketones and carboxylic acids CAN'T.
