An efficient visible light promoted metal-free dihydroxylation of styrenes with water and dioxygen has been developed for the construction of vicinal alcohols. The protocol was operationally simple with a broad substrate scope. The mechanistic studies demonstrated that one of the hydroxyl groups came from water and the other one came from molecular oxygen. Additionally, the β-alkyoxy alcohols could also be obtained using a similar strategy.
已开发出一种高效的可见光促进的无金属苯乙烯与水和氧气的二羟基化反应,用于构建邻二醇。该方法操作简单,底物范围广泛。机理研究表明,其中一个羟基来自水,另一个来自分子氧。此外,使用类似的策略也可以得到β-烷氧基醇。
