Abstract
A method for oxidative cleavage of a compound with an unsaturated double bond is provided. The method comprises the following step: (A) providing a compound (I) with an unsaturated double bond, a reagent with trifluoromethyl, and a catalyst; (I)wherein the catalyst is represented by the following formula (II):M(O)mL1yL2z (II)；wherein, M, L1, L2, m, y, z, R1, R2 and R3 are defined in the specification; and(B) mixing the compound with an unsaturated double bond and the reagent with a trifluoromethyl to perform an oxidation of the compound with the unsaturated double bond by using the catalyst at air or an oxygen condition to get a compound presented as formula (III): (III).
