My. Osokin et al., Epoxidation of 5-vinyl-2-norbornene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide, catalyzed with transition metal compounds, RUS J AP CH, 74(5), 2001, pp. 834-838
Epoxidation of 5-vinyl-2-norbornene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide in the pr
esence of Mo, V, and Ti compounds was studied. The optimal conditions for s
ynthesis of 2,3-epoxy-5-vinyl norbornane were found.
