Abstract
Ag and Cu-catalysed heterogeneous epoxidation of alkenes is a strong function of the identity of the metal, the presence or otherwise of allylic H atoms, and the stereochemistry of the alkene. Halogens and nitrate promote selectivity by an electronic effect and direct oxygen transfer, respectively.
