Oxidation of cycloalkanones with hydrogen peroxide: an alternative route to the Baeyer-Villiger reaction. Synthesis of dicarboxylic acid esters

The acid-catalyzed oxidation of cycloalkanones C5-C8 and C12 with hydrogen peroxide in alcohols was performed, and dicarboxylic acid esters were obtained as the major products in 53-70% yields. In the first step, geminal bishydroperoxides are generated from five-to-seven-membered cyclic ketones. The Baeyer-Villiger reaction is a side process accompanied by the formation of ω-hydroxycarboxylic acid esters.

SELECTIVE MONOETHERIFICATION AND MONOESTERIFICATION OF DIOLS AND DIACIDS UNDER PHASE-TRANSFER CONDITIONS

Research on the selectivity of etherification reactions of diols and esterification reactions of diacids by alkyl halides under phase-transfer catalysis has shown that under such conditions, selectivity of monoetherification increases in the order prim sec tert diols, though overall yield of monoether decreases from sec to tert diols.Monoesterification of diacids was accomplished with a high degree of selectivity.Optimal extraction of diols and diacids was found to correspond in general to chain lengths of around 5 carbons.This could mean that the complex formed between the catalyst and the anion to react is stabilized for certain carbon lengths by inner solvation in virtue of its spatial conformation.
