Ozonolysis of tetramethoxyethene 1 produces 20–40% of dimethyl carbonate 3, 35–60% of methyl trimethoxyacetate 7, and 20–35% of the dioxetane 8 of 1. Yields vary with initial concentration of 1, temperature, and solvent. Singlet oxygen is produced, which reacts with 1 to form 8 and can be trapped with 2,5-dimethylfuran. No evidence for the formation of the molozonide of 1 was obtained. Up to 2.5 moles of 1 are consumed per mole of ozone. Ozonolysis of a mixture of 1 and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene 12 gave the epoxide of 12 and three times the expected amount of the allylic hydroperoxide of 12. A competing radical chain oxidation reaction is proposed to account for these products and the stoichiometry of the ozonolysis. The initial reaction in the ozonolysis of 1 is proposed to be an electron transfer reaction that is calculated to be exothermic by > 35 kcal/mol. The resulting radical ions initiate the radical chain oxidation and combine to form the oxygenated epoxide 9 of 1. Loss of singlet oxygen from 9 forms the epoxide 10, which rearranges to 7. At −95 °C the zwitterion from 10 is trapped by CD3OD to produce a mixture of 7 with one α OCD3 group and pentamethoxyethanol with one β OCD3 group from which a CH3OD group is lost at ~ −10 °C to form more deuterated ester.

There are two strains of bacteria viz. Thiobacillus thiooxidansand Thiobacillus ferrooxidanswidely mentioned to play an important role in the leaching process of low-grade ores. Another strain used in this study is a thermophile and is designated Caldariella .These microorganisms are acidophilic chemosynthetic aerobic autotrophs and are capable of oxidizing many metal sulfides and elemental sulfur to sulfates and Fe2+ to Fe3+. The necessity of physical contact or attachment by bacteria to mineral surfaces during oxidation reaction has not been fairly established so far. Temple and Koehler reported that during oxidation of marcasite T. thiooxidanswere found concentrated on mineral surface. Schaeffer, et al. demonstrated that physical contact or attachment is essential for oxidation of sulfur.
