Abstract: An efficient method for the 2-hydroxylation of 1,3-diketones by using atmospheric oxygen as an oxidant under transition-metal-free condition is described. The protocol has the advantages of using an inexpensive and stable oxidant, producing high yields, and requiring ecofriendly conditions.
