Methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) catalyzes the selective epoxidation of alken
es in the biphasic medium CH2Cl2/H2O2-H2O. Especially sensitive epoxid
es, which could not be obtained by the use of other reagents, have bee
n isolated in high yield by the addition of bipyridine to this reactio
n medium. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
