✦ Synopsis

In the ferrous ion induced decomposition of alkyl hydroperoxides in the presence of cupric halides or pseudohalides, intramolecular functionalization, with ligand transfer from cupric salts to S-carbon atom, is achieved. Alkoxy radicals containing more than four carbon atoms in an alkyl chain, generated from different type of precursorsl, inculding alkyl hydroperoxides 2 3 and dialkyl peroxides , undergo intramolecular
