The reaction of dimethyldioxirane with chrysene: Formation of a trioxide

Oxidation of chrysene with dimethyldioxirane gives a number of products including the interesting trioxide, chrysene-5,6:4b, 10b:11,12-trioxide, 3. The x-ray crystallographic structure of 3 indicates that it is a non-planar system.

FACILE SYNTHESIS OF K-REGION ARENE OXIDES

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons reacts at the K-region with N-bromoacetamide in acetic acid to provide trans-bromohydrin acetates which are readly cyclized to arene oxides.The simplicity of the approach makes radioactive and optically active K-region arene oxides easily available.
