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, the general reaction is represented as follows:

Peroxy acids generally used in this process are MCPBA and peroxyacetic acid. The formation of epoxide via peroxy acid is 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.
