Synthesis of Trialkylsilylated α-Hydroperoxy Aldehydes and Ketones via Ozonolysis of Protected Allylic Hydroperoxides
α-Silylperoxy aldehydes and ketones 3 have been prepared by ozonolysis of silyl-protected allylic hydroperoxides, followed by subsequent reduction of the latter with dimethyl sulfide.Deprotection of silylperoxy aldehydes 3a-c with fluoride ion led to decomposition with chemiluminescence.
