Reaction Steps

48.82 g (0.3 mol) of 5-(2-propenyl)-1,3-benzodioxole were reacted with 45 g (0.1 mol) of a 20% strength solution of perpropionic acid in dichloropropane at 30° C. as described in Example 1. After a reaction time of 6 hours, the peracid conversion was 96%. 5-(Oxiranylmethyl)-1,3-benzodioxole was formed with a selectivity of 68%.
