A renewable tertiary hydroperoxide has been efficiently synthesized in 83% overall yield starting from commercially available (+)-endo-2-norborneol. This oxygen donor, derived from (+)-norcamphor, when employed in Ti (Oi-Pr) 4-catalyzed sulfoxidations, proved to be considerably more reactive when compared to a previously reported camphor-derived hydroperoxide. Reduced steric hindrance of the new oxidant lowered the level of ...
