Ethylene carbonate as a unique solvent for palladium-catalyzed Wacker oxidation using oxygen as the sole oxidant
Jing-Lun Wang, Liang-Nian He, Cheng-Xia Miao and Yu-Nong Li
Ethylene carbonate (EC) as a unique solvent for the Wacker oxidation of higher alkenes and aryl alkenes has been successfully developed using molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant, in which colloidal Pd nanoparticles stabilized in EC are considered to facilitate its reoxidation under cocatalyst-free conditions.
