Tandem Benzylic Oxidation/Dihydroxylation of α-Vinyl- and α-Alkenylbenzyl Alcohols
Fernandes, Rodney A.,Kattanguru, Pullaiah
, p. 92 - 107 (2015)
A de novo tandem benzylic oxidative dihydroxylation of α-vinyl- and α-alkenylbenzyl alcohols has been developed to give α,β-dihydroxypropiophenones (=2,3-dihydroxy-1-phenylpropan-1-ones) and α,β-dihydroxyalkyl phenones. This method was shown to be substrate-selective and specific for the oxidation of benzylic alcohols.
Selective formation of non-conjugated olefins by samarium(II)-mediated elimination/isomerization of allylic benzoates

Aromatic allylic benzoates can be selectively transformed to the corresponding benzoate eliminated olefin by the action of samarium diiodide. Depending on the substrate and the elimination conditions, high selectivity for the non-conjugated alkene product
