Heterogeneous fullerene-supported osmium tetroxide catalyst for the cis-dihydroxylation of olefins

Abstract

We report on the activity of fullerene-supported OsO4 catalysts in the achiral dihydroxylation of olefins using N-methylmorpholine N-oxide as co-oxidant. The fullerene-supported OsO4 catalysts can selectively dihydroxylate olefins with conversions up to 95% after 48 h without leaching, and the catalysts can be recovered and recycled several times.
