An unprecedented method for the generation of tert -butylperoxy radical using DIB/TBHP protocol: Solvent effect and application on allylic oxidation

摘要

Figure presented Tert-Butylperoxy radical was generated with PhI(OAc) _2 and tBuOOH. Ester solvent was found to be critical and the protocol was applied in the allylic oxidation of various olefinic substrates, which gave the corresponding α,β-unsaturated enones in good yield and regioselectivity.
