Selective methylene C-H oxidation for the synthesis of alcs. with a broad scope and functional group tolerance is challenging due to the high proclivity for further oxidation of alcs. to ketones. Here, authors report the selective synthesis of benzylic alcs. employing bis(methanesulfonyl) peroxide as an oxidant. Authors attempt to provide a rationale for the selectivity for monooxygenation, which is distinct from previous work; a proton-coupled electron transfer mechanism (PCET) may account for the difference in reactivity. Authors envision that our method will be useful for applications in the discovery of drugs and agrochems.
