Synthesis of endoperoxides by domino reactions of ketones and molecular oxygen

Abstract

Domino reactions of ketones with molecular oxygen in the presence of potassium hydroxide and potassium t-butoxide afford cyclic hydroperoxy acetals (3,5-dihydroxy-1,2-dioxanes). Mixed endoperoxides can also be obtained in a three-component reaction of two ketones and oxygen.
