We present herein for the first time the use of the [Cu(Xantphos)(neoc)]BF₄ as a photocatalyst for the selective C–H allylic oxygenation of cycloalkenes into the corresponding allylic hydroperoxides or alcohols in the presence of molecular oxygen. The proposed methodology affords the products at good yields and has also been applied successfully to several bioactive terpenoids, such as geraniol, linalool, β-citronellol, and phytol. A mechanistic study involving also kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) supports the proposed singlet oxygen-mediated reaction. On the basis of the high chemoselectivity and yields and the fast and clean reaction processes observed, the present catalytic system, [Cu(Xantphos)(neoc)]BF₄, has also been applied to the synthesis, at a laboratory scale, of the cis-Rose oxide, a well-known perfumery ingredient used in rose and geranium perfumes.
