A study of the regioselectivity of oxygen insertion in the Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ones

Abstract

Synthesis and Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of the series of bicyclic ketones 3 and 6 is described. The ratio of methine to methylene carbon migration in the oxidation was found to vary depending on the 5-endo and 7-anti substituents of the ketones. Possible reasons for the observed regioselectivity are discussed.
