✦ Synopsis
Environmentally friendly oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide or dioxygen can be used today in catalytic versions of the almost one century old Baeyer-Villiger oxidation with transition metal complexes as catalysts. On the right is a sketch of a possible mechanism for this reaction with a platinum catalyst in homogeneous solution.
