Abstract

A mild method for the oxidative rearrangement of tertiary allylic alcohols to β-substituted enones using a TEMPO/CuCl system, in the presence of molecular sieves, is described. Depending on the substrate, CuCl was used in either a catalytic amount under an oxygen atmosphere or stoichiometrically.
