Wacker oxidation of various terminal olefins with Pd0/C- KBrO3, a nontoxic, environmentally benign, and easy to handle catalyst system, was achieved in high isolated yields. The described protocol offers an alternative to the traditional Wacker system which uses CuCl 2 as co-catalyst. The catalyst is reusable while maintaining high activity and selectivity.
