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.
