Carbonylation of primary/secondary alcohols to aldehydes/ketones was greatly accelerated by the use of a Pd-based catalyst in the presence of NaOCl as an oxidant. The catalyst was more easier to recycle in the IL [Emim]PF6 with an equal-proportioned CH2Cl2 than in the single CH2Cl2 or IL. 2014 The Author(s). Published by Taylor &ampArticle
