Abstract
2-(1-Hydroperoxyalkyl)-furans and 6-hydroperoxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones are alt ernatively accessible by acid-catalyzed oxidation of 2-furyl alcohols with hydrogen peroxide under appropriate conditions. Representative compounds of both classes of hydroperoxides have been used, as easily renewable oxygen donors, in asymmetric sulfoxidation reactions. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevi er Science Ltd.
