  ABSTRACT: Catalytic activity and selectivity of prepared catalysts (Fe2O3/ and Fe2O3/AC(KOH)) were investigated for liquid phase aerobic oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols, in a batch reactor, using solvent free condition and/or eco-friendly solvents. The catalysts were characterized by SEM, EDX, XRD, FTIR, TGA/DTA, and surface area and pore size analysis. Experimental data revealed that Fe2O3/AC(KOH) was an efficient catalyst for the oxidation (dehydrogenation) of alcohol while was found to show catalytic activity for both dehydration and dehydrogenation of alcohols. The catalysts were recycled by simple filtration, and used several times without any loss of catalytic activity.
