Reaction of epoxyketones with hydrogen peroxide, ethane-1,1-dihydroperoxide as a stable product was reported. Triacetone triperoxide and methylhydroperoxide were reported as highly explosive compounds. Thermogravimetric investigations showed decomposition in the temperature range 60-130°C with the highest decomposition rate at about 105°C. Using differently substituted epoxyketones as reactants, it was able to isolate and characterize propane-1,1-dihydroperoxide. Epoxyketones can also be attacked by H2O2 at the carbonyl C atom and at both epoxy C atoms as electrophilic centers. Initial results revealed that the acid-catalyzed reaction of 5- and 7-ring homologues 1 (n=0,2) with H2O2 runs similarly. They also show a lower tendency to form the geminal dihydroperoxide.

Tetraethylammonium superoxide, generated in situ by the phase transfer reaction of potassium superoxide and tetraethylammonium bromide, brings about a clean cleavage of various anhydrides, particularly those with high molecular weight in dry dimethylformamide. As an outcome, succinic anhydride 1; glutaric anhydride 2; 3,3-dimethylglutaric anhydride 3; phthalic anhydride 4; diphenic anhydride 5; 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9-oxo-1,4-ethanonaphthalene-2,3- endo-dicarboxylic anhydride 6: 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexachloro-5-norbomene-2,3- dicarboxylic anhydride 7; endo-bicyclo [2.2.1] heptan-2-one-5,6-dicarboxylic anhydride 8; cis-5-norbornene-endo-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride 9 and trans- 1,2-cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydride 10 have been transformed into their corresponding dicarboxylic acids in fairly good yields. The report demonstrates the applicability of tetraethylammonium bromide as a phase transfer catalyst for efficient superoxide studies.
