Dear Friends:
I need a simple procedure for the regio-selective allylic oxydationof
Limonene (at the acyclic end). I am aware of Crawfords work (JACS, 1972,
4298). HOwever, I am always getting about10% impurity, which is difficult
to be seperated. I need pure alcohol.
Since we cannot purchace n-BuLi used in this procedure, I normally make
and titrate it against, a standard (say, diphenyl acetic acid).
I would like to know, any other, cleaner and high yielding method for this
oxydation.
