Abstract

The cleavage of olefins by ozone is usually carried out in two steps: reaction with ozone in an inert solvent to form ozonides and subsequent oxidation or reduction in the presence of water or acetic acid. Since ozonides are somewhat unstable, 2 have variable composition, 3 form polymeric ozonide^,^^^ dispr~ portionate,~ and because occasionally other oxidations occur during the reaction of olefins with ozone-oxygen ozonolyses have been carried out ...
