Redox-Active Ligand-AssistedRuthenium-Catalyzed Lemieux–Johnson-TypeOxidation of Olefins for Aldehyde Synthesis

Abstract This work presents a ruthenium complex catalyst bearing redox-active ligands for highly selective oxidative cleavage of alkenes. The ligand serves as a dynamic electron reservoir with two core functions. Reversible electron transfer between the ligand and the Ru center g...
