The oxidation of aromatic aldehydes to phenols (Dakin reaction) has been demonstrated to proceed readily on both activated and non-activated aldehydes in the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMI][PF6], 1) with high selectivity, easy product separation and excellent chemical yields.
