    Abstract

    The reactions of the enol ethers I (R = OMe, R1 = H), II (R = H, n = 2, 8; R = CMe3, n = 2), and adamantylideneadamantane (I; RR1C = adamantylidene) with 3O2 and 1O2 were studied. Reaction with 1O2 gave 1,2-dioxetanes. Reaction with 3O2 was chemiluminescent, and the main products were the ketones obtained by C:C bond cleavage. The 1,2-dioxetanes were intermediates in this latter reaction. [on SciFinder (R)]
