title: Synthesis of silyl monoperoxyketals by regioselective cobalt-catalyzed peroxidation of silyl enol ethers: application to the synthesis of 1,2-dioxolanes.
abstract: The cobalt-catalyzed peroxidation of silyl enol ethers with molecular oxygen and triethylsilane provided silyl monoperoxyketals in 54%-96% yield. These compounds serve as precursors to peroxycarbenium ions, which undergo annulations to provide 1,2-dioxolanes.
