Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Conditions were found for the alkylation of tetrahydropyran with alkenes in presence of di-t-butyl peroxide.

  2. 2.

    The effect of reaction time and amount of the peroxide on the yield of the monoalkyl derivative was determined. The maximum yield of 2-ethyltetrahydropyran is obtained in presence of 4.4 mol.% of the peroxide.

  3. 3.

    The six-membered cyclic ether tetrahydropyran is less reactive than its five-membered analog, tetrahydrofuran.
