Abstract
Propylene has been catalytically oxidized by dioxygen to acrylic acid and/or its esters in high yield (60-80%) in acidified aqueous and/or a lcoholic solutions of palladium-561 giant clusters, whereas ethylene h as been converted to acetic acid; this is the first example of acid-pr omoted palladium catalysis of alkene oxidation.
