Abstract
Catalytic generation of alkyl radicals from aldehydes via oxidative deformylation was realized using a cobalt-salen complex with H2O2. The deformylation was thought to proceed through homolytic cleavage of peroxohemiacetal intermediates to provide even primary alkyl radicals under mild conditions. Variously substituted and functionalized hydroperoxides were obtained from corresponding aldehydes in good yield.
