Hydrogen peroxide ozonides

Aldehydes are easily oxidized to carboxylic acids under conditions of ozonide hydroly SIS When one wishes to isolate the aldehyde itself a reducing agent such as zinc is included during the hydrolysis step Zinc reduces the ozonide and reacts with any oxi dants present (excess ozone and hydrogen peroxide) to prevent them from oxidizing any aldehyde formed An alternative more modem technique follows ozone treatment of the alkene m methanol with reduction by dimethyl sulfide (CH3SCH3)... 

Oxygen Compounds. Although hydrogen peroxide is unreactive toward ozone at room temperature, hydroperoxyl ion reacts rapidly (39). The ozonide ion, after protonation, decomposes to hydroxyl radicals and oxygen. Hydroxyl ions react at a moderate rate with ozone (k = 70). 

AH of the commercial inorganic peroxo compounds except hydrogen peroxide are described herein, as are those commercial organic oxidation reactions that are beheved to proceed via inorganic peroxo intermediates. Ozonides and superoxides are also included, but not the dioxygen complexes of the transition metals. 

This discussion of the structures of diene polymers would be incomplete without reference to the important contributions which have accrued from applications of the ozone degradation method. An important feature of the structure which lies beyond the province of spectral measurements, namely, the orientation of successive units in the chain, is amenable to elucidation by identification of the products of ozone cleavage. The early experiments of Harries on the determination of the structures of natural rubber, gutta-percha, and synthetic diene polymers through the use of this method are classics in polymer structure determination. On hydrolysis of the ozonide of natural rubber, perferably in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, carbon atoms which were doubly bonded prior to formation of the ozonide... 

Oxidation Is usually brought about by using the acetic acid/hydrogen peroxide mixture (the acHve species is peracetic acid). Ozonide is highly dangerous, especially when it is insoluble in the medium. 

There is some information concerning the reaction of ozone with chemicals under aqueous conditions. The information available suggests that double-bond cleavage takes place, just as it does under nonaqueous conditions, except that ozonides are not formed. Instead, the zwitterionk intermediate reacts with water, producing an aldehyde and hydrogen peroxide. In addition to double-bond cleavage, a number of other oxidations are possible. Mudd et showed that the susceptibility of amino acids is in the order cysteine, tryptophan, methionine. 

Reaction of 3,5-disubstituted-1,2,4-trioxolanes (89) with oxidants (usually under basic conditions) leads to carboxylic acids (Equation (14)). This reaction is often carried out as the work up procedure for alkene ozonolysis, avoiding the need to isolate the intermediate ozonide. Typical oxidants are basic hydrogen peroxide or peracids and this type of oxidative decomposition is useful for both synthetic and degradative studies. 

Acid-catalyzed condensation of bicyclic ozonides with aldehydes and ketones, in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, leads to the formation of bicyclic peroxide analogs of acetals in low yields, as shown in equation 91 for the condensation of the ozonide of 1-phenylcyclopentene (266) with benzaldehyde. The structure of compound 267, with the preferred ring conformation as shown, was determined by XRD analysis . The same method served to demonstrate that the condensation compound 16c is unique, with structure 254 .
