The homogeneous catalytic diacetoxylation of 1,3-butadiene was found to proceed in a medium of acetic acid, palladium complexes and acetate ions more efficiently than upon using the nitrate-iodate reoxidative system. The major reaction products are cis- and trans-1,4-diacetoxy-2-butenes formed in 15-17 mass % yield and 48-50% selectivity and 3,4-diacetoxy-1-butene formed in 10 mass % yield and selectivity of about 40%. Two alternative mechanisms were proposed and the reasons for the low reactivity of butadiene under homogeneous catalysis conditions were discussed.
