1,2-Cyclohexanediones were found to be dioxygenated by molecular oxygen with the aid of cupric ion to afford 1,5-keto acids and carbon monoxide.The reaction proceeds possibly via an endoperoxide intermediate.Methyl α-hydroxyadipates were also formed as byproducts.The mechanism of oxygenation is discussed.
