A metal-free, visible-light-induced oxidative C-C bond cleavage of cycloketones with mol. oxygen is described. Cooperative Bronsted-acid catalysis and photocatalysis enabled selective C-C bond cleavage of cycloketones to generate an array of γ, δ- and ε-keto esters under very mild conditions. Mechanistic studies indicate that singlet mol. oxygen (1O2) is responsible for this transformation. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 3,7-Dimethyloctan-1-ol (cas: 106-21-8COA of Formula: C10H22O).
3,7-Dimethyloctan-1-ol (cas: 106-21-8) belongs to alcohols. The oxygen atom of the strongly polarized O―H bond of an alcohol pulls electron density away from the hydrogen atom. This polarized hydrogen, which bears a partial positive charge, can form a hydrogen bond with a pair of nonbonding electrons on another oxygen atom. Converting an alcohol to an alkene requires removal of the hydroxyl group and a hydrogen atom on the neighbouring carbon atom. Dehydrations are most commonly carried out by warming the alcohol in the presence of a strong dehydrating acid, such as concentrated sulfuric acid.COA of Formula: C10H22O
