Photochemical formation of hydroperoxides and peroxides

  • Chapter

Abstract

Unsensitized photochemical replacement of a carbon-bonded hydrogen by the hydroperoxide group by the direct action of oxygen is only of small preparative significance as far as open chain compounds are concerned. The experiments seldom lead to homogeneous hydroperoxide products. Thus Farmer and Sutton [1] obtained a mixture of two hydroperoxides by the light-induced autoxidation of methyl oleate. Closer examination [2] revealed the methyl oleate autoxidation to be more complex in nature; for details of the mechanism involved the pertinent autoxidation literature (e.g. [3–5], see also [6]) should be consulted.
