Hydrogen peroxide, basic

Acid hydrolysis of peroxides (4) and (5) generates carbonyl compounds (parent ketones or aldehydes) and hydrogen peroxide. Basic hydrolysis of cycHc diperoxides with a-hydrogen (those from aldehydes) yields carboxyHc acids (44) ...

The method is basically an application of the Wacker oxidation except that the catalyst used is palladium acetate ( Pd(AcO)2 or Pd(02CCH3)2). the solvent is acetic acid or tert-butyl alcohol and the oxygen source is the previously suggested hydrogen peroxide (H202)[17]. 

The formation of trisubstituted A-4 thiazoline-2-ones from the corresponding thiones analogs can be performed by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide under basic conditions. This reaction is strongly dependent on the pH of the medium. Higher yields are obtained in strongly alkaline solution (883).

Oxidation. Oxidation of hydroxybenzaldehydes can result in the formation of a variety of compounds, depending on the reagents and conditions used. Replacement of the aldehyde function by a hydroxyl group results when 2- or 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes are treated with hydrogen peroxide in acidic (42) or basic (43) media pyrocatechol or hydroquinone are obtained, respectively. 

A number of chemiluminescent reactions may proceed through unstable dioxetane intermediates (12,43). For example, the classical chemiluminescent reactions of lophine [484-47-9] (18), lucigenin [2315-97-7] (20), and transannular peroxide decomposition. Classical chemiluminescence from lophine (18), where R = CgH, is derived from its reaction with oxygen in aqueous alkaline dimethyl sulfoxide or by reaction with hydrogen peroxide and a cooxidant such as sodium hypochlorite or potassium ferricyanide (44). The hydroperoxide (19) has been isolated and independentiy emits light in basic ethanol (45). 

In the preparation of hydroperoxides from hydrogen peroxide, dialkyl peroxides usually form as by-products from the alkylation of the hydroperoxide in the reaction mixture. The reactivity of the substrate (olefin or RX) with hydrogen peroxide is the principal restriction in the process. If elevated temperatures or strongly acidic or strongly basic conditions are required, extensive decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide and the hydroperoxide can occur. 

Acidic hydrolysis of these hydroxyaLkyl hydroperoxides yields carboxyUc acids, whereas basic hydrolysis regenerates the parent aldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, and often other products. When derived from either aldehydes or cycHc ketones, peroxides (1, X = OH, = H, R, = alkylene or... 

Owiag to the lower basicity of the parent amines, aromatic amine oxides cannot be formed directiy by hydrogen peroxide oxidation. These compounds may be obtained by oxidation of the corresponding amine with a peracid perbenzoic, monoperphthaUc, and monopermaleic acids have been employed. 

Many functional groups are stable to alkaline hydrogen peroxide. Acetate esters are usually hydrolyzed under the reaction conditions although methods have been developed to prevent hydrolysis.For the preparation of the 4,5-oxiranes of desoxycorticosterone, hydrocortisone, and cortisone, the alkali-sensitive ketol side chains must be protected with a base-resistant group, e.g., the tetrahydropyranyl ether or the ethylene ketal derivative. Sodium carbonate has been used successfully as a base with unprotected ketol side chains, but it should be noted that some ketols are sensitive to sodium carbonate in the absence of hydrogen peroxide. The spiroketal side chain of the sapogenins is stable to the basic reaction conditions.
