Abstract

Through the different oxidations of olefins mediated by palladium compounds, the epoxidation has met a limited success. This review summarizes the different stoichiometric and catalytic palladium procedures that led to the production of epoxides from alkenes. The proposed mechanisms are also described with, in some cases, personal comments.

Graphical abstractA review is presented on the epoxidation of olefins using either stoichiometric amounts of oxopalladium complexes or the association of palladium compounds with oxygen sources. Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
