(a)
Interpretation: A starting material and reagents used to form following epoxide needs to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Preparation of epoxide-
Peroxy acids generally used in this process are MCPBA and peroxyacetic acid. Formation of epoxide via peroxy acid us a stereospecific process thus, cis substituents in alkene (starting material) remain at cis to each other in the epoxide (product). Similarly, trans substituents in alkene remain at trans to each other.
(b)
Interpretation: A starting material and reagents used to form following epoxide needs to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Preparation of epoxide- Epoxides can be prepared using peroxy acids. Alkenes are starting material in the preparation of epoxides with peroxy acids. Here, general reaction is represented as follows:
