This communication narrates the reactivities of different aromatic aldehydes (XC6H4CHO, where X = -H, -NO2, -Cl and -OMe) towards inorganic oxidants containing elements belonging to different parts of periodic classification in highly acidic, acidic buffer and alkaline media. The electron transfer reactions involving the substrates and oxidants focus on the studies during the period 1982-2012. The reactions have been investigated over wide range of experimental conditions. Oxidation of aromatic aldehydes by vanadium(V), chromium(VI), manganese(VI), bromate and iridium(IV) have been carried out in acidic medium whereas those by dihydrogentelluratometallate(III) ([M-III(H2TeO6)(2)](5-), where M-III = Cu-III and Ag-III) and hexacyanoferrate(III) have been studied in alkaline medium. Kinetics and mechanistic features associated with electron transfer behaviors have been included and duly analyzed.
