Addition to Electron Deficient Olefins of α-Oxy Carbon- Centered Radicals, Generated from Cyclic Ethers and Acetals by the Reaction with Alkylperoxy- λ3-iodane

Abstract

Thermal decomposition of 1-tert-butylperoxy-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one in cyclic ethers and acetals at 50 °C generates α-oxy carbon-centered radicals, which undergo an addition reaction with vinyl sulfones and unsaturated esters.
