Etude quantitative des réactions d'ozonolyse. VI. Sur la réduction du zwitterion de Criegee en composé carbonylé

Abstract

It is shown for a series of symmetric olefins that ca. 44 % of the zwitterion which does not react to give ozonide yields open-chain peroxides. The latter, when formed of [Formula: see text] units, decompose rapidly into aldehyde and O2 (at room temperature), whereas such polymeric peroxides are relatively stable at 25° in CCl4 when built of ketonic carbonyloxides.
