Abstract
Epoxidation of olefins is an important way to functionalize hydrocarbons for intermediates in fine chemicals industry [1]. Organic peracids are still used as stoichiometric reagents, but, the use of hydrogen peroxide or organic hydroperoxides appears more convenient and cost effective. These reagents require a transition metal complexes as catalysts; most of them are titanium, vanadium, molybdenum or tungsten based [2].
