Tuning the Reactivity of Peroxo Anhydrides for Aromatic C-H Bond Oxidation

Phenol moieties are key structural motifs in many areas of chemical research from polymers to pharmaceuticals. Herein, we report on the design and use of a structurally demanding cyclic peroxide (spiro[bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,4′-[1,2]dioxolane]-3′,5′-dione, P4) for the direct hydroxylation of aromatic substrates. The new peroxide benefits from high thermal stability and can be synthesized from readily available starting materials. The aromatic C-H oxidation using P4 exhibits generally good yields (up to 96%) and appreciable regioselectivities.
