چکیده
|
Leucine amino acid, has been explored as an effective catalyst for conversion of ketones and aldehydes into corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides using 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile at room temperature. The reactions proceed smoothly within short periods of time to provide the respective gem-dihydroperoxides in excellent yields. Mild reaction conditions, low reaction times, high yields, low environmental impact, use of non-expensive, recyclable and green catalyst are the main merits of the present method
