A general approach to E,E ‐diene hydroperoxides is described based upon photoisomerization of readily available Z,E ‐diene monoperoxyketals. Protection of a Z,E ‐diene hydroperoxide as the 2‐methoxypropyl peroxyketal is followed by iodine‐mediated photoisomerization to produce a mixture enriched in the E,E isomer. After chromatographic purification, deprotection of the peroxyketal with mild acid furnishes the E,E ‐diene hydroperoxide.
