- Abstract
Waste not wasted: A mechanistic study of the autoxidative coupling of xanthene with cyclopentanone uncovered an autoinductive effect of the waste product hydrogen peroxide. It generates radicals in the presence of acid and ketones, which accelerate the reaction by providing an additional pathway to the reactive hydroperoxide intermediate. This discovery could be applied to achieve other Brønsted acid catalyzed oxidative coupling reactions.
