Abstract
Epoxidation of olefins by dioxygen in combination with aldehyde as red ucing agent can be carried out at room temperature, in the absence of metal catalysts, using perfluorocarbons as inert reaction media. These non-toxic, non ozone-depleting fluids are good alternatives to the ch lorinated solvents normally used.
