α,β-Unsaturated aldehydes are useful products as such in agrochemistry, but also potential intermediates for the preparation of important insect pheromones and kairomones. Until now, primarily the thermodynamically more stable (E)-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes have been identified as useful intermediates in the production of conjugated diene pheromone compounds, however, their practical and cost-effective synthesis on an industrial scale remains challenging. The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for selective oxidation of alkenes to α,β-unsaturated carbonyls which can be further transformed into pheromones and kairomones preferably without isolation and significant loss of the existing stereochemical purity.
