Acetylacetonatorhodiumolefin systems, allylrhodium complexes, or (Ph 3 P) 3 RhCl catalyzed the conversion of alkenes and molecular oxygen to carbonyl compounds via CC‐bond cleavage. For example, 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene was transformed into acetone. Butadiene and isoprene also undergo oxidative CC‐bond cleavage to form acrylaldehyde and related compounds.
