Abstract

Oxidation of alcohols with electrolytic manganese dioxide under mild conditions afforded aldehydes and ketones in good yields. The method was applied for the syntheses of cystophorene [(3E, 5Z)-1, 3, 5-undecatriene](15) and a sex pheromone of forest tent cater pillar [(5Z, 7E)-5, 7-dodecadien-1-ol (18)].
