Abstract

1352 J. Org. Chem. Vol. 44, No. 8, 1979 Notes the corresponding epoxide in essentially quantitative yield; no detectable amounts of the ketone or ring-opened products formed. The oxide was readily identified by a comparison with authentic material prepared via the intermediate bromohydrin. Thus, this two-phase procedure appears superior to the previously described direct epoxidation. The above results establish that this two-phase ...
