New free-radical halogenations of alkanes, catalysed by N-hydroxyphthalimide. Polar and enthalpic effects on the chemo- and regioselectivity

Reactions of alkanes with different halogenating systems are compared in order to explore the reactivity of phthalimido-N-oxyl radical in hydrogen abstraction; the importance of polar effects is emphasised.

Decyclization of chlorocyclohexanone hydroperoxides under the action of ferrous salts

The decomposition of 2-chloro-, 2,2-dichloro-, and 2,6-dichloro-substituted cyclohexanone hydroperoxides on treatment with ferrous chloride and sulfate to give chloro-substituted aliphatic acids was investigated. A method for the synthesis of 2,6,6-trichlorohexanoic and 2,6,7,11-tetrachlorododecane-1,12-dioic acids was elaborated.

Trichloroisocyanuric Acid Oxidation of 2-Chloro Aldehyde Acetals to 2-Chloro Acids Esters

2-Chloro acid methyl esters were prepared in good yields treating 2-chloro aldehyde dimethyl acetals with trichloroisocyanuric acid in DMF.Aldehyde dimethyl acetals with the 2-halogen on a tertiary carbon atom were poorly reactive and could be oxidized efficiently only after their transformation into 1,3-dioxolanes.
