摘要

Vitamin E is an essential food component of major economical relevance with important antioxidant properties and biological activity. The oxidation of pseudocumene to trimethyl-1, 4-benzoquinone would be a key transformation in an alternative industrial production of α- tocopherol that is important for the antioxidant activity of vitamin E. The methyltrioxorhenium (MTO)-catalyzed oxidation of pseudocumene has been revisited to offer a more ...
