Abstract :

Oxidation reactions are central components of organic chemistry, and have shown their importance in modern organic synthesis, materials and microelectronic sciences, pharmaceutical industries. Although researchers have developed new organic oxidation methods in recent years, the chemistry community faces continuing challenges to use â�?�?greenâ�? reagents and maximize atom economy. Undoubtedly, with its low cost and lack of environmentally hazardous byproducts, molecular oxygen (O2) is an ideal oxidant. As a result, we focused our attention on the development of versatile aerobic reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons through the appropriate choice of Pd catalysts and O2.
