Catalytic oxidation of 1‐alkenes to aldehydes by an epoxidation–isomerization pathway with air or dioxygen as terminal oxidant has been realized for bulky ruthenium(VI) porphyrin catalysts. For the new, recyclable catalyst [Ru VI (tmttp)O 2 ], product yields of up to 99 % and total turnover numbers of up to 1144 were obtained.
