A novel catalytic hydroxyacylation of alkenes using 1,3-dioxolanes and molecular oxygen has been developed, and the reaction of 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane with methyl acrylate under dioxygen atmosphere in the presence of catalytic amounts of NHPI and Co(OAc)2 produced the corresponding adduct in 81% yield.
