General description: Jones reagent is a solution of chromium trioxide in aqueous sulfuric acid. Using acetone as a reaction solvent, the Jones reagent is usually used for the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carboxylic acids and ketones, respectively. The oxidation is very rapid and exothermic. The Jones reagent tolerates a variety of functionalities, such as, for example, unsaturated bonds, which are rarely oxidized. For a comprehensive review of chromium-based reagents, see "Oxidation of Alcohols to Aldehydes and Ketones" by Tojo and Ferníndez, Springer Berlin, 2006, 1-97.
