A 100 % atom-efficient synthesis of ketones from electron-deficient internal olefins was achieved using O2 as a "green" oxidant (see scheme, DMA=N,N-dimethylacetamide, EWG=electron-withdrawing group). Various electron-deficient olefins were oxidized to the corresponding ketones with over 99 % selectivity and without the formation of olefin isomers or their oxidized products. Copyright

The reaction of a series of alkynes with mercury(II)acetate, both in equimolar and catalytic amounts, were investigated in methanol.Hex-1-yne, oct-1-yne, oct-4-yne, 1,4-diacetoxybut-2-yne, methyl oct-2-ynoate, methyl 3-phenylpropynoate, oct-2-ynoic acid, phenylpropynoic acid, oct-1-yn-3-ol, 1-ethynylcyclohexanol, 1-ethynylcyclohexamine, phenylethyne, diphenylethyne, and ethynylferrocene were the examined substrates.The non-mercuriated products from the reaction were the corresponding vinyl ether, dialkoxyalkane, and ketone, isolated under preparative conditions.The presence of 0.1percent toluene-p-sulphonic acid increased the reactivity.The reactions of oct-1-yne and oct-4-yne were studied in detail by following with time the formation of the products under a variety of conditions, and a mechanistic scheme was drawn.For comparison, styrene, trans-oct-4-ene, and trans-β-methylstyrene were treated with 5 molpercent mercury(II) acetate.The reaction of alkenes was found to be non-catalytic.
