Abstract
A catalytic system for oxidation of organic compounds including olefins, cyclic ketones and secondary alcohols. Soluble peroxo or solid supported oxo or peroxo complexes of molybdenum or tungsten are used in the presence of hydrogen peroxide to effect the oxidation. The resulting products include lactones, hydroxy acids, ketoacids, hydroxy esters and ketoesters from cyclic ketones; ketones from secondary alcohols and polyols or derivatives thereof from allylic alcohols.
