Abstract

One-pot Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of cycloalkanones was successfully achieved by allowing them to react with hydrogen peroxide generated in situ from benzhydrol and molecular oxygen assisted by N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) and 2, 2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN). This method provides an alternative synthetic route to lactones from cycloalkanones using sec-alcohols and molecular oxygen assisted by NHPI.
