Abstract

Regioselective epoxidation of different types of double bonds located within the cyclic and acyclic parts of bulky olefins has been investigated using large-pore titanium silicate Ti-β in the presence of dilute aqueous H2O2 as oxidant under mild liquid-phase conditions. Our experimental results revealed that side-chain vinylic double bonds are selectively epoxidized than those in the cyclohexene-ring. The epoxidation tendency of various bulky ...
