Abstract
We developed the aerobic photooxidative cleavage of vicinal diols to carboxylic acids using 2-chloroanthraquinone in the presence of photoirradiation with a high-pressure mercury lamp. This is the first metal-free reaction using molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant.

- 9 General Procedure A solution of 1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol (1a, 0.3 mmol) and 2-chloroanthraquinone (0.03 mmol) in dry EtOAc (3 mL) in a Pyrex test tube, purged with an O2 balloon, was stirred and irradiated externally with a 400 W high-pressure mercury lamp for 20 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, and 1% aq NaOH was added. The aqueous solution was washed with Et2O, and then acidified with 2 M aq HCl solution, which was extracted with Et2O. The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over MgSO4, and concen-trated in vacuo. Purification of the crude product by PTLC (CHCl3–MeOH = 9:1) provided benzoic acid (Rf = 0.6, 31.4 mg, 86%).
