Ceric ammonium nitrate oxidation of cyclohexanone, cyclopentanone, and norbornanone gives nitrato-carboxylic acids, oxidation of adamantanone and adamantan-2-ol gives the lactone 14.

Radical oxidation and addition reactions of anthracene (1), 9-methylanthracene (2) and 9-phenylanthracene (3) were investigated with dimethyl malonate (4) in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) and manganese(III) acetate (Mn(OAc)3). Although mostly anthraquinone derivatives and bianthrone were obtained with CAN, substituted 9,10-dihydroanthracene and 9,10-substituted anthracene derivatives were obtained with Mn(OAc)3. Dimethylmalonyl addition products (5a, 33 % and 5b, 42 %) were obtained in higher yield than quinones (5d, 8 % and 5e, 3 %) using Mn(OAc)3 as oxidant. 9a (96 %) and 9b (84 %) were synthesized in high yield and substitution products (7a, 44 % and 8b, 56 %) were obtained in higher yields than quinones (5d and 5e) using CAN as oxidant. The reactions were carried out in non-acidic medium (dichloromethane and methanol). Based on the structures of the isolated products a mechanism for these transformations was proposed.

Polyethylene glycols (PEGs) were found to be efficient media for decarboxylative nitration of α,β-unsaturated aromatic carboxylic acids by ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in acetonitrile to give β-nitrostyrene derivatives. Kinetics of the reaction exhibited second order kinetics with a first order dependence on [CAN] and [substrate]. Reactions were too sluggish to be studied in the absence of PEG; therefore detailed kinetics were not taken up. Reaction times were reduced from 24 hrs to few hours. The catalytic activity was found to be in the increasing order PEG-300 > PEG-400 > PEG-600 > PEG-200. Mechanism of PEG-mediated reactions was explained by Menger-Portnoy's scheme as applied in micellar kinetics.

We have developed I2/KH2PO2 and KI/P(OEt)3 strategy syntheses of esters from carboxylic acids and alcohols through different reaction mechanisms. The advantages of present protocol: mild conditions and late-stage diversification of natural products.
