Abstract

The oxidative cleavage of C=C bonds adjacent to aryl and alkyl moieties was efficiently achieved with monoacetylated bishydroperoxides. The main active oxidant used in this reaction was singlet molecular oxygen, which was generated in situ from the base-mediated fragmentation of monoacetylated bishydroper­oxides. All the reactions proceeded smoothly at room temperature to furnish the respective carbonyl compounds in good yields within short reaction times.
