Looking for the name of a molecule

Hello ! 

My question is quite simple, but it's very important.

I am looking for the name of this molecule : (chek the attached file)

It is a product made by the reaction of dioxygen and 1,4 dioxane and the only thing i was able to find on this is that this compund is naturally occuring 

when dioxane is exposed to air or UV light.

 

Thanks to your help.

I’d have named it Sheila

Thank you hypervalent_iodine

I'm a "beginner" in organic chemistry. Do this reaction is simple and it's just to help me with that, not just in theory (and i have a bit of dioxane to use so..) But i know that it's not the best thing to start with because dioxane is carcinogenic and the 1,4 Dioxanyl-hydroperoxyde is potentially explosive..

Yes, not something I would recommend for a beginner.
