The reaction involves the treatment of an alkene with a carboxylic acid employing tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. In all cases, the corresponding allylic esters are obtained. When L-proline is employed, the allylic alcohol or ketone is obtained. The oxidation of cyclohexene and valencene has been optimized by design of experiments (DoE) statistical methodology.}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, keywords = {allylic oxidation}, title = {Allylic Oxidation of Alkenes Catalyzed by a Copper−Aluminum Mixed Oxide}, doi = {10.1021/ol500198c}, author = {García-Cabeza, Ana Leticia and Marín Barrios, Rubén and Moreno Dorado, Francisco Javier and Guerra, Francisco M. and Ortega Agüera, María Jesús and Martínez Massanet, Guillermo}, }
