A new and general Sc(OTf)₃-catalyzed C–C bond-forming reaction of 3-(2-methoxyethoxy)-endoperoxy ketals with silyl ketene acetals, silyl enol ethers, allyltrimethylsilane, and trimethylsilyl cyanide has been developed via the reactive peroxycarbenium ions, affording a wide range of complicated 3,3,6,6-tetrasubstituted 1,2-dioxenes bearing adjacent quaternary carbons and 3-acetyl/allyl/cyano functional groups in good yields at room temperature. Notably, the resultant 1,2-dioxenes are structurally stable, which can be facially transformed into another important 1,2-dioxane endoperoxide under conventional hydrogenation conditions without deconstructing the weak O–O bond.
