J. Singh et al., SELECTIVE OXIDATION OF ALLYLIC METHYL-GROUPS OVER A SOLID SUPPORT UNDER MICROWAVE IRRADIATION, Journal of chemical research. Synopses, (7), 1997, pp. 264-265
SeO2/(BuOOH)-O-t adsorbed on SiO2 is found to be a highly selective re
agent for the oxidation of allylic methyl groups to trans-alpha,beta-u
nsaturated aldehydes under microwave irradiation.
