Iron(III) sulfate as terminal oxidant in the synthesis of methyl ketones via wacker oxidation

, p. 5787 - 5793 (2014)
An efficient and environmentally benign method using Fe(III) sulfate as a terminal oxidant in the synthesis of methyl ketones from terminal olefins via the Wacker process is developed. The methodology offers high selectivity for a Markonikov product, shows good functional group compatibility, involves mild reaction conditions, and is operationally simple. Fe2(SO 4)3 is the sole terminal oxidant in this process. The method holds potential for future applications in organic synthesis.

A mimic of the Wacker process for C=O bond formation in terminal olefins can be initiated by a combination of the Pd(II) and hypervalent iodine reagent, Dess-Martin periodinane to generate methyl ketones. This operationally simple and scalable method offers Markovnikov selectivity, has good functional group compatibility, and is mild and high yielding.
Synthesis of methyl ketones from terminal olefins using PdCl 2/CrO3 system mimicking the Wacker process
Fernandes, Rodney A.,Bethi, Venkati
, p. 4760 - 4767 (2014/06/24)
An efficient synthesis of methyl ketones from terminal olefins using PdCl2/CrO3 system mimicking the Wacker process is developed. The method shows good functional groups compatibility, no aldehyde by-products and is operationally simple. CrO3 is the sole oxidant and replaces both Cu-salts and molecular oxygen, traditionally used in this process. The method holds potential for future applications in organic synthesis.
