Allylic cyanohydrins were subjected to Dauben-Michno oxidation at low temperatures to provide β-cyanoenones in good to excellent yields. The potential of this oxidative transposition as a means of an enantiomeric switch of enones containing a latent plane of symmetry was tested by conversion of (-)-carvone to its enantiomer.
