• Epoxidation reaction is a reaction in which epoxide ring is formed by the reaction between an alkene and an oxidizing agent.
• Epoxide is a three membered ring, which consists of carbon and oxygen.
• A number of oxidizing agents are used for this reaction, like peroxy-acid etc.
• In general, reaction of peroxy acid with alkene is proceeded through an attack of electrophile on the double bond.
The reaction mechanism between alkene and peroxy-acid involve a single step.
The first step is the electrophilic attack of peroxy-acid on a double bond that forms an epoxide as oxidation product.
Oxidation product is the product obtained in the reaction in which oxygen is added to the reactant.
Reaction mechanism of the epoxide is given below.
In the above reaction acts as a nucleophile, and bonds to the slightly electrophilic .
