baeyer-villiger oxidation of cyclic ketones
The Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclic ketones refers to a chemical reaction that involves the conversion of a cyclic ketone into an ester or lactone by the introduction of an oxygen atom into the carbon-carbon bond adjacent to the carbonyl group. This process is typically achieved by using a peracid, such as peroxyacetic acid, as the oxidizing agent.
