Abstract

A different regioselective three-component reaction of alkenes, oxygen sources, and hydroperoxides mediated by ammonium iodine to α-oxyperoxidates has been developed. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that regioselective radical addition and subsequent SN2 nucleophilic substitution were possible for the formation of products. In addition to the traditional pathway of SN2 reaction, that is, where nucleophiles attack the α-C atoms at the back side, an additional unusual transition configuration with the H2O molecule attacking the α-C atom at the front side was obtained.
