Symmetrically substituted bis(4-oxocyclohexa-2,5-dienyl) peroxide 5 (R = R') as well as unsymmetrically substituted 5 (R ≠ R') can be prepared efficiently by treating 4-halogenocyclohexa-2,5-dienone 3 with 4-hydroperoxycyclohexa-2,5-dienone 4 in the presence of an appropriate positive halogen compound such as N-iodosuccinimide. Acetonitrile is a suitable solvent for the reaction. The formation of 5 is suggested to take place via electrophilic attack by the positive halogen species upon 3 generating the 4-oxocyclohexa-2,5-dienyl cation (or the phenoxy cation), followed by nucleophilic attack by 4 upon the cation. It is emphasized that some of the peroxides obtained by this means have not been prepared by the classical method, coupling of phenoxy radicals with O2.

A novel and efficient protocol for the synthesis of amides is reported which employs a BODIPY catalyzed oxidative amidation reaction between aromatic aldehydes and amines under visible light. Compared with the known Ru or Ir molecular catalysts and other organic dyes, the BODIPY catalyst showed higher reactivity toward this reaction. Mechanistic studies reveal that dioxygen could be activated through an ET and a SET pathway, forming active peroxides in situ, which are vital for the key step of the reaction, i.e. the oxidation of hemiaminal to amide. The broad substrate scope and mild reaction conditions make this reaction practically useful and environmentally friendly for the synthesis of amide compounds.
