OXIDATION OF ACETONE UNDER BAEYER‐VILLIGER CONDITIONS: EVIDENCE FOR FORMATION OF ACETONE CARBONYL OXIDE OR ITS ISOMERIC DIOXIRANE

Abstract
Abstract— Oxidation of acetone under Baeyer‐Villager conditions produces a new species which is capable of epoxidizing olefins. It is suggested that this intermediate is acetone carbonyl oxide or its isomer dimethyldioxirane.
