Reaktionsschritte

To a jacketed reactor was charged 8.36g. (0.116 mole) of 2-butanone, 38.0g. (0.232 mole) of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl hydroperoxide (89.7% assay) and 100 ml. of pentane. To the vigorously stirred mixture at 0°C was added 17.2g. of 77% sulfuric acid over a period of 15 minutes and the mixture was allowed to stir at 0°C for 4 hours. The product was worked up as in Example I and 23.8g. (59.5% of theory, uncorr.) of liquid was obtained which had an active oxygen content of 8.41% (theory, 9.25%). Hence, the assay of the product was 91.0% and the corrected yield was 54.2%. An infrared spectrum of the product showed no OH or C=O bands but showed a strong and broad OO band centered at 875 cm-1.
