The heterogeneous mixture was stirred rapidly at room temperature to facilitate even dispersion of the solid, then held at 30° C. (bath temperature) for 32 hours. The mixture was then cooled and ethyl acetate/water (0.5 cm3+0.5 cm3) added. The organic phase was removed and the aqueous phase extracted with ethyl acetate (2×0.5 cm3). The combined organic extracts were then dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified on silica, eluting with 0-25% DCM/petrol, to give stilbene oxide as a white solid (38 mg, 59%) and as a >98:2 mixture (trans:cis) of diastereoisomers; enantiomeric excess 93% (R, R major) as determined by chiral HPLC (see conditions below). The NMR data for this compound is reported above.
