Formation of epoxides in the oxidation of β-hydroxyalkyl radicals by copper(II) in aqueous solution

Abstract

High yields of epoxides are produced when β-hydroxyalkyl radicals are oxidised by copper(II) ion in aqueous solution at pH 3–6; kinetic data show that interaction of the radical with copper(II) ion is rate controlling.
