Efficient Baeyer-Villiger electro-oxidation of ketones with molecular oxygen using an activated carbon fiber electrode in ionic liquid [bmim][OTf]

A new and efficient method for the synthesis of lactones and esters involving the application of an molecular oxygen-based electro-catalytic oxidation system and ionic liquid [bmim][OTf] as electrolyte has been developed. The reaction between various ketones with molecular oxygen proceeds in a three...
