- Electroepoxidation of natural and synthetic alkenes mediated by sodium bromidePublication . Inês, Massuquinini; Mendonça, António; Esteves, Ana P.; Mendonça, Dina; Medeiros, Maria J.Electroepoxidation of synthetic alkenes (styrene, trans-stilbene and trans-b-methylstyrene) and of some natural terpenes (limonene, terpinolene, geraniol, a-terpinene, g-terpinene and a-terpineol) mediated by sodium bromide was performed in MeCN:H2O (4:1) at platinum electrodes. The indirect electrochemical oxidation of the olefins led to the corresponding epoxides in yields ranging from 23% to 79%.
