22. For example, chromium trioxide oxidation of a double bond, yielding an α,β-unsaturated ketone, which then has to be reduced to give an allylic alcohol, does not represent a strategic redox reaction, whereas oxidation of the same double bond with selenium dioxide (directly giving the allylic alcohol) does represent a strategic redox reaction.
