Abstract

A mCPBA-mediated, metal-free, intramolecular dioxygenation reaction of unactivated alkenes is reported. In the presence of m-chlorobenzoic peracid, different unsaturated amide substrates could be cyclized via epoxide intermediates, producing the corresponding 5-imino-2-tetrahydrofuranyl methanol products in up to 94% yield at room temperature.
