Abstract

Abstract Dimethyldioxirane converts p-substituted α-methylbenzyl alcohols to the corresponding acetophenones in excellent yield with α-hydroxyacetophenones as the minor products; the oxidation shows a ϱ of− 1.57, PKIE of 3.55, KIE of 1.09 for OD and activation parameters with a large, negative ΔS‡ term.
