Pd(II)Cl-2 (1 mole equivalent)/CuCl/DMF-H2O/O-2/2h catalysed oxidation of various prop-2-enyl ethers 1a-12a is reported to result in the formation of Wacker ketones 1b,3b,5b,6b,9b,11b,12b (12-51%), hydrolysis products 2c,4c-7c,9c-12c (12-43%) and eta(2)-vinyl complexes of palladium chloride 2d,4d,7d,8d (52-94%) respectively. The corresponding prop-1-enyl ethers 2e,4e-12e under similar conditions react with a catalytic amount of Pd(II)Cl-2 (0.2 mole equivalent) rapidly (15-20 min.) to give exclusively hydroxy compounds 2c,4c-12c respectively in good yields (75-97%).
