Ammonium cerium nitrate (abbreviated as CAN) is a robust oxidant with enhanced oxidizing homes underneath acidic conditions, 2nd solely to F2, XeO3, Ag2+, O3, and HN3. In aqueous options and different proton solvents, CAN is a single electron oxidant, and the consumption of CAN can be decided by using adjustments in colour (from orange to mild yellow). Due to the barriers of solubility in natural solvents, most reactions involving CAN are carried out in blended solvents such as water/acetonitrile. In the presence of different oxidants such as sodium bromate, tert butyl hydrogen peroxide, and oxygen, Ce4+can be recycled to gain catalytic reactions. In addition, CAN is additionally an fine nitration reagent.
