Application Note B12.0 Difference Between SiliaBond PCC & PDC: When to Use Them? Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) and Pyridinium dichromate (PDC) are two reagents used for the oxidation of alcohols. But these two compounds are different and must be used in the right conditions to get the de- sired products. In this document, the characteristic of these two compounds will be showed, and some ex- amples of reaction using those reagents will be given.
Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) vs. Pyridinium dichromate (PDC)
Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) Pyridinium dichromate (PDC)
Characteristics : -Compound slightly acid; never use with compounds that are very sensitive to acid (protecting groups, side-reactions, etc.)
-Solvent use: only dichloromethane (DCM)
-Oxidation of primary alcohols always gives aldehyde (RCHO) and secondary and tertiary alcohols gives ketone (RCOR’); the carboxylic acid is never produce.
-In some case, like reaction of PCC with an unsaturated tetrahydrofurane, double bond can be oxidize to give, for example, the lactone.
Characteristic : -Compound less acidic then PCC.
-Solvent use: dichloromethane (DCM) or dimethy- formamide (DMF).
-In DCM, PDC is less reactive then PCC and the oxidation of alcohol gives aldehyde (RCHO) or ketone (RCOR’), but in DMF, the oxidation of alcohol gives the carboxylic acid (RCOOH) (because a second oxidation of the aldehyde or ketone produce occured).
- Tertiary alcohols or bulk’s alcohols are most of the time not oxidize with PDC.
- Double bonds aren’t oxidize with PDC.

COMMenTS
When two reactions are performed in the same conditions, PCC always gives better yields in smaller reaction time:
Certain compounds with double bonds can make a cyclization with the expulsion of a molecule of water after acidification of the alcohol with PCC (but only compounds who can form a 5 or 6 members ring cycle); this reaction will not occur with PDC.

Silica-supported scavengers have numerous advantages over their polystyrene counterparts. They scavenge faster, generate higher purities and yields, and are solvent independent. They are also easier to work with due to the absence of static and do not require extensive washing.
