The reaction has a heterogeneous catalytic step since it depends on palladium metal formed in the system. The metal is slightly hydrided and is a very efficient disproportionation catalyst. Both HClO4 and NaOAc promote oxidation at the expense of disproportionation. Similar oxidations of cyclohexanone or hydroxy-cyclohexenes give phenol while acetoxy-cyclohexenes yield mixtures of phenyl acetate and benzene. In 0·5M-HClO4 there is a competing very fast oxidation that yields cyclohexanone, cyclohex-1-en-1-yl acetate, and cyclohex-3-en-1-yl acetate from cyclohexene. In the presence of oxygen, cyclohexene undergoes a slow palladdium acetate-catalysed homogeneous oxidation to yield cyclohex-2-en-1-yl acetate. A concurrent free-radical process yields cyclohex-2-en-1-ol and cyclohex-2-en-1-one. Cyclohexa-1,3-diene is oxidised rapidly by oxygen in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 giving a complex mixture of products, the main one being cyclohex-2-ene-1,4-diol diacetate. Under similar homogeneous conditions, cyclohexa-1,4-diene gives benzene, cyclohex-4-ene-1,3-diol diacetate, and Pd2(C6H8)(OAc)2 as a by-product. The palladium acetate-catalysed oxidation of cyclohexene, cyclohexa-1,3-diene, and cyclohexa-1,4-diene by benzoquinone yields cyclohex-2-en-1-yl acetate, cyclohex-2-ene-1,4-diol diacetate, and cyclohex-4-ene-1,3-diol diacetate respectively with benzene, also, from cyclohexa-1,4-diene. The roles of oxypalladation adducts and π-cyclohexenylpalladium complexes in these reactions are discussed.","PeriodicalId":17321,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Chemical Society A: Inorganic, Physical, Theoretical","volume":"44 1","pages":"1321-1327"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1971-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79705204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
