The Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation of Cubyl Ketones: A Synthetic Route to Functionalized Cubanols.

Key Points

• The core finding illustrates the successful synthesis of functionalized cubanols using a two-step process.
• Experimental results show the relative migratory aptitude of cubyl groups during baeyer-villiger oxidation.
• The methodology involves baeyer-villiger oxidation of cubyl ketones followed by acid hydrolysis for product formation.
• This work enhances the understanding of cubanols' synthesis and provides a pathway for further functionalization.
