A green and efficient organic–aqueous two-phase reaction route for the synthesis of tert-butyl peresters by KI-catalyzed C–H oxidation of methyl arenes in a microfluidic chip reactor has been developed. Moreover, a series of tert-butyl perester products were obtained in moderate to good yields under metal-free conditions. A scale-up continuous flow system was constructed to verify the application of

tert-butyl peresters was achieved via copper-catalyzed oxidative-coupling of benzyl cyanides with tert-butyl hydroperoxide in short reaction times. Various derivatives of tert-butyl peresters were synthesized by this pathway in good to excellent yields. Further investigation revealed that the above-mentioned protocol is effective for the synthesis of benzoic acid derivatives when the reaction is conducted
