Abstract

The principle of two-liquid phase catalysis has been demonstrated in the transformation of heptane soluble allyl alcohols and aqueous μ3-oxo-tri-ruthenium acetate to saturated ketones. The reaction with dec-1-en-3-ol was shown to take place at the liquids' interface while hex-1-en-3-ol and hept-1- en-ol undergo both interfacial and homogeneous isomerization.
