A novel palladium-catalyzed alkene diacetoxylation with dioxygen (O2) as both the sole oxidant and oxygen source is developed, which was identified by 18O-isotope labeling studies. Control experiments suggested that bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) played a dominant intermediary role in the formation of a C-O bond. This method performed good functional group tolerance with moderate to excellent yields, which could be successfully applied to the late-stage modification of natural products. Furthermore, an atmospheric pressure of dioxygen enhances the practicability of the protocol.

The formation of hydroxy acetates in the reaction of some alkenes with lead(IV), cobalt(III), and manganese(III) in acetic acid is demonstrated to involve the intermediacy of alkene radical-cations.A study employing a range of aryl-substituted alkenes has shown that there is an inverse relationship between the yield of hydroxy acetate and the ionisation potential of the organic substrate.The electron deficiency in the radical-cations derived from these alkenes appears to be localised on the double bond: no evidence could be obtained for reaction at the aromatic ring.The introduction of the chlorine atom into this ring had the effect of repressing electron-transfer in cobalt(III) and manganese(III) oxidations but not in those involving lead(IV).
