Carbonyl‐forming reactions are a class of fundamental transformations in organic chemistry. Guided by the current importance of environmentally benign metal‐free catalysis and synthesis, herein we review recent advances in carbonyl‐generation reactions based on alkene C=C double oxygenation as well as related cascade reactions in the synthesis of diverse organic products. The content of this focus review consists of two important but different reaction models: oxygenation based on full C=C double‐bond cleavage and oxygenation based on partial C=C double‐bond cleavage.
