An efficient and unprecedented strategy for the synthesis of 1,4-enediones from saturated ketones has been developed via palladium-catalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation. The protocol employs molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant and represents an atom- and step-economic process. The approach showed broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and complete E-stereoselectivity. The reaction mechanism has been investigated through deuterium-labeling experiments and intermediate experiments.
Stereospecific Epoxidation of cis-2-Butene-1,4-diones to cis-2,3-Epoxybutane-1,4-diones with Oxodiperoxomolybdenum (VI), MoO5*H2O*HMPA

The epoxidation of cis-2-butene-1,4-diones 4 with (aqua)(hexamethylphosphoramide)oxodiperoxomolybdenum (VI), MoO5*H2O*HMPA, occured stereospecifically to give the cis-epoxides 5, whose stereochemistry was assigned on the basis of chemical evidence and a comparision of their spectral data with those of the corresponding trans-epoxides 6, which were prepared by the epoxidation of the trans-olefins 3 with alkaline hydrogen peroxide.
