Described herein are compounds of formula (I) as properfume compounds, as well as a method to release a compound being a carbonyl of formula (II), a formate ester of formula (III) and/or an alcohol of formula (IV), by exposing the compound of formula (I) to an environment wherein it is oxidized. Also described herein are a perfuming composition and a perfume consumer product including at least one compound of formula (I).

Disclosed herein are reaction compositions comprising an oxidation catalyst, a solvent, and a substrate that is dissolved in the solvent. The oxidation catalyst comprises a metal ion complexed with an -keto acid and a tridentate N,N,O-ligand. Also disclosed herein are methods for oxidizing a CH bond of a molecule, the methods comprising contacting the molecule with a metal complex comprising a metal ion complexed with a tridentate N,N,O-ligand in the presence of an -keto acid and a solvent. In some embodiments, the oxidation catalyst or metal complex is linked to a solid support.
