The C(sp3)–H bond oxygenation of the cyclopropane-containing mechanistic probes 6-tert-butylspiro[2.5]octane and spiro[2.5]octane with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by manganese complexes bearing aminopyridine tetradentate ligands has been studied. Mixtures of unrearranged and rearranged oxygenation products (alcohols, ketones, and esters) are obtained, suggesting the involvement of cationic intermediates and the contribution of different pathways following the initial hydrogen
