title: A broadly applicable mild method for the synthesis of gem-diperoxides from corresponding ketones or 1,3-dioxolanes.
abstract: Ketones or ketals were readily converted into the corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides in high yields by treatment with ethereal H(2)O(2) at ambient temperature in the presence of 2-5 mol % of phosphomolybdic acid.
