Significance

A polystyrene surface-grafted ­imidazolium resin-supported osmium complex (PS-sg-IM Os) 1 was prepared by treatment of PS-sg-IM with K2OsO2H2O in water for two days (eq. 1). Catalyst 1 was characterized by IR, FE-SEM, EDX, and ICP. The dihydroxylation of various olefines 2 with N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) took place in the presence of 1.0 mol% Os of catalyst 1 in water-acetone (1:3) to give the corresponding diols 3a-f in 91-95% yield (eq. 2).
