Wacka wacka : The title reaction makes use of a wide range of directing groups (DG) to enable the highly regioselective oxidation of alkenes, and occurs predictably at the distal position. Both E and Z  alkenes afford valuable functionalized ketones and cross‐metathesis was shown to facilitate the preparation of the starting materials. BQ=benzoquinone.
