Ozonolyses of Selected Vinyl Ethers

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jo00047a007

Ozonolyses of the 1-substituted methyl vinyl ethers 5, 8, and 16, bearing bulky substituents, and of the 2-substituted and 2,2-disubstituted methyl vinyl ethers 25 and 30, respectively, afforded the corresponding ozonides which have been isolated and characterized.In most cases, dry ozonolysis on polyethylene was advantageous over ozonolysis in solution.Ozonolysis of the 1,2,2-trisubstituted vinyl ether 34 gave no ozonide under either conditions.
