uhhh... I don't think you have asked your question properly (at least I don't understand what you are trying to say). Can you please explain
what you mean and I'll try to answer it?

Of course it will act as an oxidizer in inorganic chemistry. All oxidizers technically can be used in organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry - but
whether they find use in those fields depends on cost, efficiency, and (for o-chem) selectivity.
I weep at the sight of flaming acetic anhydride.

One of the things about oxidizers is that each one depending on what it is you are trying to oxidize each one oxidizes certain things in their own
specific way. For example the nitrates and nitric acid make the nitrates or they tend to nitrate things. Peroxides can sometimes completely break a
molecule apart While others such as pyridinium chlorochromate is a very specific and like, manganese dioxide, gentler oxidizer.
