PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a carbonyl compound from a wide range of applicable substrates by using a molecular oxygen as an oxidant without generating waste materials by reducing useless raw materials, hardly having risk of causing the environmental problems. SOLUTION: The method for producing the carbonyl compound involves bringing a primary alcohol, a secondary alcohol, an aldehyde or an aromatic alkane as the substrate into contact with the oxygen in the presence of a bromine compound or an iodine compound while irradiating them with light. The presence of triphenylphosphine, biphenyl or benzophenone as a reaction promotor is effective. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
