Procedure

A solution of 4-ethyl-5-vinyl-2-benzofuran-1(3H)-one (1.1 g, 5.85 mmol) in 50 mL of DCM was slowly added mCPBA (3.60 g, 85% purity, 17.6 mmol) in 50 mL of DCM at 0° C. Warmed to room temperature, the mixture was stirred for 3 days. The mixture was washed with aqueous Na2SO3 until KI paper didn't change color. The organic layers were combined, washed with brine and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography to give product 4-ethyl-5-oxiran-2-yl-2-benzofuran-1(3H)-one. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.75 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.41 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 5.30 (s, 2H), 4.11-4.13 (m, 1H), 3.23-3.25 (m, 1H), 2.75-2.82 (m, 2H), 2.70-2.72 (m, 1H), 1.27 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 3H).
