Source sentences:
text: The primary aliphatic alcohols are still somewhat less reactive than aromatic aldehydes, but the difference of reactivity is relatively small and the competitive oxidation of the two substrates takes place with partial selectivity; in this case, the higher polar effect for hydrogen abstraction from alcohols is balanced by the more favorable enthalpic effect for hydrogen abstraction from aldehydes.
