Mild and Efficient Strontium Chloride Hexahydrate-Catalyzed Conversion of Ketones and Aldehydes into Corresponding gem- Dihydroperoxides by Aqueous H2O2

SrCl2·6H2O has been shown to act as an efficient catalyst for the conversion of aldehydes or ketones into the corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides (DHPs) by treatment with aqueous H2O2 (30%) in acetonitrile. The reactions proceed under mild and neutral conditions at room temperature to afford good to...
