TPAP (tetrapropylammonium perruthenate) (346 mg, 0.98 mmol) was added in one portion and the reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. Upon completion of the reaction the material was filtered through a pad of silica and concentrated in vacuo. The material was purified by flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of 20% ethyl actetate/hexanes to 30% ethyl actetate/hexanes to give 2-methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)propanal (2.11 g, 55.1%).
