Abstract: The oxidation of terminal olefins by bis (acetonitrile) chloronitropaIladium (II)(1) in acetic acid leads to a mixture of glycol monoacetate isomers as the main products. Various amounts of ketones and unsaturated acetates are also formed. The rate of formation and the yield of glycol monoacetate decrease with increasing chain length. Cyclic olefins yield no glycol monoacetates. Replacement of acetic acid by stronger or sterically hindered ...
