Oxygen? That's radical! A method for the direct synthesis of substituted alcohols, ketones, and diketones through a catalyst‐controlled highly chemoselective coupling and oxygenation of olefins has been developed. The method is simple and practical, can be switched by the selection of different catalysts, and employs molecular oxygen as both an oxidant and a reagent.

A method to prepare highly conjugated indenes efficiently by iron(III) chloride-catalysed dimerisation of trisubstituted propargylic alcohols under very mild conditions at room temperature is described. The reactions are rapid and operationally straightforward, giving the indene products in good yields and regioselectivity.
