Photo-oxygenation of geraniol: synthesis of a novel series of hydroxy-functionalized anti-malarial 1,2,4-trioxanes.
Photo-oxygenation of geraniol 2, an abundantly available allylic alcohol, furnished a mixture of mono- and di-hydroperoxy products; the latter have been used for the preparation of a novel series of hydroxy-functionalized anti-malarial 1,2,4-trioxanes (7a-d, 8a-d).
