The palladium catalyzed oxidation of alkenes with molecular oxygen is a synthetically important reaction which employs palladium catalysts in solution; therefore, a solvent plays a critical role for the process. In this study, we have tested several green solvents as a reaction medium for the allylic oxidation of a series of alkenes. Dimethylcarbonate, methyl isobutyl ketone, and propylene carbonate, solvents with impressive sustainability ranks and very scarcely exploited in palladium catalyzed oxidations, were proved to be excellent alternatives for the solvents conventionally employed in these processes, such as acetic acid. Palladium acetate alone or in the combination with p-benzoquinone efficiently operates as the catalyst for the oxidation of alkenes by dioxygen under 5–10 atm. For most substrates, the systems in green solvents showed better selectivity for allylic oxidation products as compared to pure acetic acid; moreover, the reactions in propylene carbonate solutions occurred even faster than in acetic acid.

Paragraph 0006; 0012, (2017/02/28)
The invention discloses a method of reduction alcoholization of D-carvone and resolution of an enantiomer by biocatalysis. The D-carvone is taken as a raw material and subjected to reduction with sodium borohydride to obtain a compound II, the compound II is subjected to enzymatic kinetic resolution reaction to obtain a compound III and a compound IV, or the compound II is subjected to dynamic kinetic resolution to obtain the compound III of which the yield is higher than 90%, and a compound V can be obtained by hydrolyzing the compound III. The method further changes a prochiral ketone group in the D-carvone into a chiral hydroxyl center and carries out further resolution; and the method has the characteristics of simplicity of operation, high yield of product, good optical purity and the like.

Reactions of epoxides prepared from α-, β-pinenes and camphene with acetic anhydride on aluminosilicate catalysts (clay K-10, zeolite β) were investigated affording various products of skeleton rearrangements: mono- and diacetates with five- and six-membered rings, and also with norbornane and pinane cores.
