When benzyl, allyl, and propargyl ethers were treated with tert ‐butyl hydroperoxide and a catalytic amount of iron(III) acetylacetonate, tert ‐butyl peroxyacetals were produced in good to excellent yields, via CH bond functionalization. This method is also applicable to ethylene acetals of unsaturated aldehydes to give peroxyorthoesters.
