General Metal-Free Baeyer–Villiger-Type Synthesis of Vinyl Acetates

Authors:

Abstract
Oxone, a cheap, stable, and nonhazardous oxidizing reagent, transforms α,β-unsaturated ketones of defined stereochemistry into their corresponding vinyl acetates through a Baeyer–Villiger reaction. This process is general and straightforward, tolerating a wide range of functional groups.
