Abstract
Breaking the rules: Reversal of the high Markovnikov selectivity of Wacker-type oxidations was accomplished using a nitrite co-catalyst. Unbiased aliphatic alkenes can be oxidized with high yield and aldehyde selectivity, and several functional groups are tolerated. (18) O-labeling experiments indicate that the aldehydic O atom is derived from the nitrite salt.Entities:
