and Stereoselective Synthesis of syn-Aryl Glycol Monoesters from Aryl Olefins with Hydrogen Peroxide Catalyzed by RuCl 3 . -In the presence of aliphatic C-C double bonds, the aryl double bonds are selectively dioxygenated. The fact that the process proceeds generally with complete selectivity [cf. (XIII) and (XV)] can be used for the preparation of natural products. -(ZHANG, Y.; CHU, G.; CUI, X.; HAN, Z.; DOU, D.; CHEN, Y.; YU, X.; LI*, C.; Synlett 2010, 7,
