Base-andCo (Salpr)-promoted oxygenations of title compounds havebeen investigated with a view to obtaining further details concerning controlling factors in regioselective 02 incorporation into phenols. In the oxygenation of 4-alkenyl-2, 6-di-tert-butyl-and 2-alkenyl-4, 6-di-tert-butylphenols (1 and 12), the reactivity of the substrates and regioselectivityin the 02 incorporation may be interpreted in terms of electronic and steric effects of the alkenyl group as well as association effect of the countercation K+ on the transition-state 26 involving a charge transfer from the substrate anion to 02. With 4-alkynyl-2, 6-di-tert-butylphenols (21), dioxygen was incorporated exclusively into the ortho position only when the phenolate anion was associated with K+. On the contrary, in the oxygenation of 1 and 12 with Co (Salpr), 02 was incorporated exclusively into the alkenyl side chain, regardless of the nature of the substituent, whereas with 21, 02 incorporation was distributed to both the ortho and the alkynyl side chain. Thesubstituent-dependent regioselectivity in the oxygenation of phenols with Co (Salpr) is because the reactive phenolate-Com species undergo homolysis to form phenoxy radical-Co11species reversibly, whose oxygenations compete with each other. When the oxygenation of the anionic species predominates, 02 is incorporated into the ortho position, whereas with the radical species the para and side chain oxidations predominate.
