The oxidative coupling of carboxylic acids with liquid ketones and cyclic ethers has been accomplished in minutes using t-butylhydroperoxide in the presence of tetrabutylammonium iodide under microwave irradiation in the absence of a solvent. In addition to drastically shortening the reaction times, the use of microwaves resulted, in general, in yields equal to or higher than those obtained by conventional

Iodine-catalyzed oxidative C(sp3)–H acyloxylation of acetone with carboxylic acids has been developed. The method employs iodide as catalyst and sodium chlorite as oxidant. Substituted benzoic acids, naphthoic acids and heteroaromatic carboxylic acids can be used, and 2-oxopropyl carboxylates are obtained with good to excellent yields.
The KI-catalyzed reaction of acetone with aromatic carboxylic acids is achieved, leading to α-acyloxycarbonyl compounds in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. The present method exhibits good functional-group compatibility. Notably, this reaction system is even suitable for cinnamic acid, 3-phenylpropiolic acid and 4-phenylbutanoic acid. A kinetic isotope effect (KIE) study indicates

An efficient and environmentally benign method using Fe(III) sulfate as a terminal oxidant in the synthesis of methylketones 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(SO4)3 is the sole terminal oxidant in this

An efficient synthesis of methyl ketones from terminalolefinsusing 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 molecularoxygen, traditionally used in this process. The method holds potential for future applications in
