A lactonization of various diols e.g., I catalyzed by platinum on carbon (Pt/C) in water under an atm. of mol. oxygen was developed. Diols e.g., I were transformed into lactones e.g., II by the present oxidative lactonization method. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 5-Methylisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (cas: 54120-64-8Related Products of 54120-64-8).
5-Methylisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (cas: 54120-64-8) belongs to benzofurans derivatives. Benzofurans are compounds with a planar structure having 10 pi electrons that include the lone pair on oxygen atom, which makes it more susceptible to electrophilic attack. As benzofurans are prone to undergo ring opening of the heterocycle, examples of reduction of this type of aromatics by using dissolving metals are rather scarce.Related Products of 54120-64-8
