Reaction Steps
A stock solution was prepared by heating at 115° C. 500 milliliters of acetic acid, 150 grams of potassium acetate, and 245 grams of manganous acetate tetrahydrate, Mn(OCOCH3)2.4H2O. A 50-milliliter aliquot of the stock solution was added to 2 milliliters of a 0.312 molar solution of tertiary butyl hydroperoxide in acetic acid. The solution also contained 400 microliters of octene-1. After heating, a hexyl gamma-butyrolactone was obtained with a 65% yield based on the tertiary butyl hydroperoxide.
