O2 Wacker MDP3P Oxidation Details

<< < (2/2)

Sh0rtTerm:
Anybee tried cyclohexaamylose in this?

Snakebyte:
Alcoholic wackers have been done in the past with various yeilds and from what swim remembers, the ones in MeOH weren't repeatable or very high yeilding for that matter.  If swim were to try this again he wouldn't waste his time doing the same runs many have done in the past. He would do 1 or both of these experiments:
1.try using polyethylene glycol(PEG) 400 as solvent as per https://www.thevespiary.org/rhodium/Rhodium/pdf/wacker.peg.pdf
or
2.try cupric acetate as co-catalyst in AcNMe2 as solvent   https://www.thevespiary.org/rhodium/Rhodium/pdf/wacker.o2.cupric.acetate.pdf
