The Kornblum–DeLaMare rearrangement is a rearrangement reaction in organic chemistry in which a primary or secondary organic peroxide is converted to the corresponding ketone and alcohol under base catalysis. The reaction is relevant as a tool in organic synthesis and is a key step in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins.〔''The base catalyzed decomposition of a dialkyl peroxide'' Nathan Kornblum and Harold E. DeLaMare ''J. Am. Chem. Soc.''; 1951; 73(2) pp 880–81; ()〕 : The base can be a hydroxide such as potassium hydroxide or an amine such as triethylamine. ==Reaction mechanism== In the reaction mechanism for this organic reaction the base abstracts the acidic α-proton of the peroxide 1 to form the carbanion 4 as a reactive intermediate which rearranges to the ketone 2 with expulsion of the hydroxyl anion 3'. This intermediate gains a proton forming the alcohol 3. : Deprotonation and rearrangement can also be a concerted reaction without formation of 4. An alternative reaction mechanism involving direct nucleophilic displacement on the peroxide link of the amine followed by an elimination reaction is considered unlikely based on the outcome of this model reaction:〔''The mechanism of the tertiary amine catalysed isomerisation of endoperoxides to hydroxyketones: synthesis and chemistry of the intermediate postulated in the peroxide attack mechanism'' David R. Kelly, Harjinder Bansal and J. J. Gwynfor Morgan Tetrahedron Letters Volume 43, Issue 51 , 16 December 2002, Pages 9331–9333 〕 : The peroxide 1 converts to the hydroxyketone 2 by action of triethylamine but the alternative route through hydroxylamine 3 by nucleophilic displacement with Lithium diisopropylamide and the ammonium salt 4 (by methylation with methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate) fails. The reaction, formally a rearrangement, ranks under the elimination reactions as already observed by the original authors. Not only alkoxides but any leaving group capable of carrying a negative charge will do for instance nitrate esters R–C(R)(H)–O–NO2. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kornblum–DeLaMare rearrangement」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
