A radical NO3• generated by anodic oxidation of NO3− was found to be an effective species to the oxidation of ethers to the corresponding carboxylic acids and ketones, and this reaction was successfully applied to the synthesis of dihydrojasmone.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
