Participants

Reaction Steps

To perbenzoic acid in chloroform prepared from 15 g of benzoylperoxide was added 6.0 g of o-benzylallylbenzene and the mixture was allowed to stand at 5° C for 3 days. The mixture was washed with 2% sodium hydroxide solution, Mohr's salt solution, then water, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated to obtain the residue, which was chromatographed over a silica gel, and as eluted with benzene/n-hexane (1/1), there was obtained 1.5 g of o-benzylallylbenzene oxide as an oily substance.
