There is a school of thought that includes water in this category, since this too contains the -OH group. I leave it to you to decide whether to subscribe to this ideal, but... dcox 2010-05-15T20:30:34+00:00 http://www.sutsci.org/ocras/archives/000862.html Please look at this ... and try it...

Many reactions that do not involve oxygen at all may still be classified as involving oxidation.

However, an important difference is that ALL classes of alcohols, including tertairy, can be deydrated, although of course tertiary ones cannot be oxidised.
