Abstract :
Decarbonylation of the tertiary aldehydes 4-ethyl-4-formyl-hexanenitrile (2) and 2-methyl-2-phenylpropanal (4) promoted by dioxygen occurs at room temperature only if suspended in water probably via the sequential acyl radical–CO liberation–tertiary radical that is promoted by an ‘on water’ process originating preferentially from the corresponding tertiary hydroperoxide.
