Ly. He et Ca. Horiuchi, Cerium (IV) sulfate mediated oxidative addition of 1-phenylcycloalkenes and styrene derivatives in methanol: Synthesis of 1,2-dimethoxy compounds, J CHEM R-S, (4), 2000, pp. 172-173
The reaction of 1-phenylcycloalkenes and derivatives of styrene with cerium
(IV) sulfate tetrahydrate in methanol leads to the formation of 1,2-dimetho
xy compounds (54-89%).
