Abstract

Abstract A new approach has been developed for a one-pot and selective oxidative cleavage of aryl-and 1, 2-diarylalkenes leading to one-carbon shorter aryl ketones; thereby, providing a complementary approach to classical ozonolysis. The methodology was applicable to diverse aromatic and polyaromaticarylalkenes bearing electron-donating or- withdrawing groups on the aromatic ring. The protocol also provided a useful one-pot ...
