Okamoto, Tsuyoshi published the artcileOxidation using quaternary ammonium polyhalides. V. Selective oxidation of benzyl alcohols by the use of benzyltrimethylammonium tribromide, Quality Control of 111865-47-5, the publication is Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan (1989), 62(11), 3748-9, database is CAplus.
The reaction of several substituted benzyl alcs. with 1 equiv of PhCH2N+Me2 Br– in carbon tetrachloride under basic or neutral conditions gave the corresponding benzaldehydes. With 2 equiv of PhCH2N+Me3 Br– in aqueous alk. solution and subsequent acid hydrolysis, the corresponding benzoic acids were obtained in satisfactory yields.
