An unprecedented intramolecular rearrangement of alpha-azidoperoxides, promoted by simple organic base to provide tert-butyl esters, has been presented. Further, a one-pot methodology consisting of in situ generation of the a-azidoperoxides from corresponding aldehydes followed by base-promoted rearrangement to obtain the desired ester has also been executed. Relevant mechanistic studies, to provide the proof for intramolecular alkoxy transfer, are investigated.
