1,2-dioxane
1,2-Dioxane or ''o''-dioxane is an organic compound with the molecular formula (CH)O, classified as a cyclic peroxide. Its synthesis was reported in 1956 by Criegee and Müller, who prepared it by reacting butane-1,4-diol bis(methanesulfonate) with hydrogen peroxide Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula . In its pure form, it is a very pale blue liquid that is slightly more viscosity, viscous than Properties of water, water. It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usua ... and distilled it as a colorless liquid. Acids and bases decompose it to ''gamma''-hydroxybutyraldehyde. Substituted 1,2-dioxanes have also been prepared, and some have been isolated from natural sources. See also * 1,3-Dioxane * 1,4-Dioxane References Dioxanes Organic peroxides {{heterocyclic-stub ...

1,3-dioxane
1,3-Dioxane or ''m''-dioxane is an organic compound with the molecular formula . It is a saturated six-membered heterocycle with two oxygen atoms in place of carbon atoms at the 1- and 3- positions. 1,4-Dioxane, which is of greater commercial value, is an isomer. Both dioxanes are colorless liquids. Preparation and derivatives The parent 1,3-dioxane is prepared by the reaction of formaldehyde and 1,3-propanediol in the presence of Brönsted or Lewis acid catalysts. Substituted derivatives can be used as protecting groups for carbonyl compounds. are prepared from the reaction between a ketone or an aldehyde with 1,3-diols. They can also be produced by the Prins reaction The Prins reaction is an organic reaction consisting of an electrophilic addition of an aldehyde or ketone to an alkene or alkyne followed by capture of a nucleophile or elimination of an H+ ion. The outcome of the reaction depends on react .... Related compounds 1,3- Dioxolanes are five-membered ring ...
