This compound and a base are added to convert a hydroxylated ortho or paraphenyl aldehyde into a benzenediol and a carboxylate in a reaction named for Dakin. Though its crystals are tetragonal, in the gaseous phase this compound displays a twisted C2 symmetry and has an unusually high barrier of rotation of 29.45 kilojoules per mole about its central bond.

The most common way to transform a sulfide into a sulfoxide is by treating it with this compound. Biologically, (*) halogenation reactions are facilitated by enzymes that use it as an oxidant. In organic chemistry, the reagent mCPBA serves the purpose of this much simpler compound. This is the simplest compound to contain an oxygen-oxygen single bond. For 10 points, name this compound commonly used to disinfect cuts, which has formula H2O2.
