Reaction Steps
The metal-catalyzed epoxidation of trans-β-methylstyrene was performed as described in Example 2 with the substitution of Co(OAc)2. 4 H2O (where OAc=acetate) (0.0058 g, 2.3×10-5 moles) as the catalyst. After 16 hours of reaction, the complete oxidation of the substrate produced benzaldehyde (14%) and 1-phenylpropylene oxide (86%).
