摘要

The use of potassium superoxide as a versatile synthetic reagent has increased rapidly since the discovery'that it is solubilized in nonpolar solvents by crown ethers. Studies of superoxide radical anion prepared this way have led to the conclusion that OF reacts more as a nucleophile than as an oxidizing agent. 2 With carbonyl compounds, the predominant pathway is that of additi~ n/elimination.~ The reactions of the annelones ...
