Abstract
The catalytic Baeyer–Villiger rearrangement of flavanones is described by the use of the homogeneous methyltrioxorhenium (MTO)/H2O2 system. In these experimental conditions 3, 4-dihydro-4-phenyl-1, 5-benzodioxepin-2-ones and previously not reported para-quinone derivatives have been obtained in mild experimental conditions from acceptable to good yields.
