Zusammenfassung:A general, facile and eco-friendly iron catalysis enables oxidation of unstrained tertiary aromatic alcohols to ketones through C−C bond cleavage even with H2O2 as the oxidant. Notably, this transformation can tolerate oxidation-labile functional groups. The robustness of this method is further demonstrated on the late-stage oxidation of complex bioactive molecules. Eco-friendly iron-catalyzed selective oxidation unstrained C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage of tertiary aromatic alcohols to ketones even with H2O2 as the oxidant is suitable for late-stage oxidation of complex small molecules.
