ResumoThe influence of steric factors on the autoxidation of aldehydes having tertiary formyl groups has been investigated. These afford nor-derivatives by loss of carbon monoxide, and carboxylic acids. Steric interactions have been shown to affect strongly the ratio between carboxylic acid and nor-derivatives and, in addition, to increase the autoxidation rate. For the first time, formation of formates from aldehydes by autoxidation conditions, has been demonstrated.
