Abstract
For the last few years, we have been involved in hydrocarbon oxidation using tert-butylhydroperoxide and catalytic quantities of chromium(VI).1,2 we have precedently observed that an excess of oxygen source is required to reach high or full conversion of the organic substrate owing to the concomittant unproductive decomposition of t-BuOOH by chromium.3
