A Greener Approach towardYnones via Visible-Light-InducedOxidation of Propargyl Alcohols under Aqueous-Aerobic Conditions

Abstract A simple and convenient approach involving visible-light-induced, TBHP-mediated oxidation of propargyl alcohols to ynone in aqueous media has been developed. This photoinduced protocol was conducted under an aerobic-aqueous medium using Eosin Y as a photosensitizer. A di...
