Methyltrioxorhenium-catalyzed epoxidations in ionic liquids

Abstract

Alkenes and allylic alcohols have been epoxidized in an ambient-temperature ionic liquid for the first time using methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) and urea hydrogen peroxide; excellent conversions and selectivities for the epoxides of a wide number of substrates were observed.
