Abstract
THE oxidation under mild conditions of unsaturated compounds presents many unknown aspects, particularly with respect to the reaction mechanism. The primary products of these oxidations have been recently investigated, and this has brought about a convenient classification of olefines into two main types: those containing unreactive double-bonds and active allylic hydrogens give allylic hydroperoxides1,2; while olefines with activated double bonds give polyperoxides together with some epoxides and carbonyl compounds1,3.
