Organo Sulfonic Peracids. 4.(1) The Reaction of Arenesulfonylimidazoles with H(2)O(2) in the Presence of Ketones. A New Entry to Dioxiranes.
TLDR
The dioxirane oxidation pathway appears to be virtually exclusive one in this system in which only 5 equiv of ketone are used, and one example for the nonaqueous in situ generation of dimethyldoxirane is given.Abstract:
The reaction of ketones (acetone, 1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-one) with the oxidation system (arenesulfonyl)imidazole (2)/H(2)O(2)/NaOH permits the in situ generation of the corresponding dimethyl- and methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane in various solvents. This has been established by the chemoselective oxidation of azomethines 6, the diastereoselective oxidation of cholesterol (12), and (18)O-labeling experiments. Because only 5 equiv of ketone are used, the dioxirane oxidation pathway appears to be virtually exclusive one in this system. One example for the nonaqueous in situ generation of dimethyldioxirane (1a) is given.read more

TL;DR: This work presents a meta-analysis of the phytochemical reactions of three ring-Opened species, namely Dioxathiirane, Dioxaselenirane and Dioxatelluriranes, which shows clear patterns in how the first two react with each other and in particular the third responds to polymethine.

TL;DR: In this article, a simplified procedure affords consistently 0.09-0.10 M solutions of distilled dimethyldioxirane in acetone; other than control of the reaction temperature below 15° and vigorous mechanical stirring, no other precautions are maniatory.

Spectral and chemical properties of dimethyldioxirane as determined by experiment and ab initio calculations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors check their previous oxygen transfer results with the thianthrene 5-oxide probe by employing the recently isolated 6 dimethyl- dioxirane (2b) and compare these with the results of ab initio calculations carried out for 1, 2a,b and appropriate reference compounds.
