Initially, various substrates bearing different electron-donating and electron-releasing functionalities were synthesized and next under the optimized reaction conditions the desired products were yielded after an easy work-up and the structures were characterized compared with those reported. All of the reactions proceeded in short reaction times and 1,1,2,2-tetrahydroperoxy-1,2-diphenylethane (THPDPE) proved its potential to yield the desired products in high yields. %U https://www.orgchemres.org/article_82180_3f347196f65302cd4bd10875929e7a5f.pdf
