Reaction Conditions:

with [Ru(2,6-Cl₂tpp)Cl₂];2,6-dichloropyridine N-oxide in chloroform-d1 at 60; for 2 h;Wacker Oxidation;

Steps:

Alkene substrate (0.1 mmol) and internal standard compound trimethylphenylsilicane(5 μL) were dissolved in CDCl3 (0.5 ml) in an NMR tube to record a ¹H NMR. Then[Ru^IV(TDCPP)Cl2] (2.0 mol%) and Cl2pyNO (1.03 equiv) were added and kept themixture at 60 ^oC. The progress of the reaction was monitored by ¹H NMR. Afterdetermination of the product yield by ¹H NMR spectroscopy, the product ketone wasseparated by flash chromatography on silica gel.
