Abstract

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.
