5-Hydroperoxycarbonylphthalimide: a new reagent for epoxidation

Abstract

Peroxycarboxylic acids, widely used for epoxidation in industry and general research, have various drawbacks, such as difficulty of preparation in a pure state, cost and the possibly ring-opening of the product epoxides due to acid-catalysed reactions; a new reagent, 5-hydroperoxycarbonylphthalimide, overcomes these problems.
