Reaction Steps

3-chlorobenzenecarboperoxoic acid (12.1 g, 54.0 mmol) is added in one portion to a solution of 3-buten-1-ylbenzene (7.15 g, 54.1 mmol) in CH2Cl2 at 0° C. followed by warming to 25° C. overnight. Saturated NaHCO3 was added and the mixture separated and the resulting clear oil (8.0 g, quant.) was carried forward without further purification: LC-MS (ES) m/z=149 (M+H)+.
