Abstract:
A facile and efficient method for the synthesis of 1, 2, 4-trioxepanes and 1, 2, 4-trioxanes from differ-ent carbinols having cyclopropyl and phenyl substituents have been explored. The corresponding hy-droxyhydroperoxides were synthesized from 30% H2O2 mediated reaction of carbinols in acidic condi-tions. This method gave an access to novel 6,6-diaryl substituted 1,2,4-trioxanes derived from benzilic acid.
