Abstract

[reaction: see text] Dihydroxylation under ruthenium catalysis provides an easy access to syn-diols, although overoxidation is a common side reaction. Furthermore, the high catalyst loadings offset the lower price of ruthenium compared to osmium. In this paper, we present an improved protocol for the RuO(4)-catalyzed syn-dihydroxylation using only 0.5 mol % catalyst under acidic conditions. A variety of olefins can be hydroxylated in good to excellent yields with only minor formation of side products.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 15. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 May 2015.
All research outputs
#2,111,236
of 22,757,090 outputs
Outputs from Organic Letters
#374
of 14,072 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#2,594
of 48,994 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Organic Letters
#1
of 116 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,757,090 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,072 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 48,994 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 116 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
