In chemistry, dioxirane (systematically named dioxacyclopropane, also known as methylene peroxide or peroxymethane) is an organic compound with formula...

Epoxidation with dioxiranes refers to the synthesis of epoxides from alkenes using three-membered cyclic peroxides, also known as dioxiranes. Dioxiranes are three-membered...

Oxidation with dioxiranes refers to the introduction of oxygen into organic molecules through the action of a dioxirane. Dioxiranes are well known for...

(DMDO) is the organic compound with the formula (CH3)2CO2. It is the dioxirane derived from acetone and can be considered as a monomer of acetone peroxide...

fructose-derived catalyst (1). This reaction is thought to proceed via a dioxirane intermediate, generated from the catalyst ketone by oxone (potassium peroxymonosulfate)...

formula CH2O2 (molar mass: 46.03 g/mol) may refer to: Dihydroxymethylidene Dioxirane, an unstable cyclic peroxide Formic acid, an organic acid Methylenedioxy...

symmetry point groups Cs, D3h, and C2v. The C2v state, consisting of a dioxirane, has been shown to be the ground state of the molecule. Carbon trioxide...

Dimesityldioxirane is a substituted dioxirane with two mesityl groups attached to the dioxirane carbon. It is a colorless crystalline substance stable...

is a rare, stable member of the dioxirane family, known for a single oxygen-oxygen bond (O-O). Unlike most dioxiranes that decompose quickly, difluorodioxirane...

without the intervention of metal catalysts. In specialized applications, dioxirane reagents (e.g. dimethyldioxirane) perform similarly, but are more explosive...
