FUNCTIONALIZATION OF THE δ-CARBON ATOM BY THE FERROUS ION INDUCED DECOMPOSITION OF ALKYL HYDROPEROXIDES IN THE PRESENCE OF CUPRIC SALTS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)87708-4

In the ferrous ion induced decomposition of alkyl hydroperoxides in the presence of cupric halides or pseudohalides, intramolecular functionalization with ligand transfer from cupric salts to δ-carbon atom, is achieved.
