The nucleophilic reactivities (N, sN) of peroxide anions (generated from aromatic and aliphatic peroxy acids or alkyl hydroperoxides) were investigated by following the kinetics of their reactions with a series of benzhydrylium ions (Ar2CH+) in alkaline aqueous solutions at 20 °C. The second-order rate constants revealed that deprotonated peroxy acids (RCO3?), although they are the considerably weaker Br?nsted bases, react much faster than anions of aliphatic hydroperoxides (ROO?). Substitution of the rate constants of their reactions with benzhydrylium ions into the linear free energy relationship lg k=sN(N+E) furnished nucleophilicity parameters (N, sN) of peroxide anions, which were successfully applied to predict the rates of Weitz–Scheffer epoxidations. DFT calculations with inclusion of solvent effects by means of the Integral Equation Formalism version of the Polarizable Continuum Model were performed to rationalize the observed reactivities.

Cyperus scariosus is a potential medicinal herb belonging to the family Cyperaceae. The GC-MS analysis of the oil showed cyprene (18.57 %) as the major terpene present in it. Cyprene was isolated from the non-polar fraction of the oil using hexane as solvent and characterized using TLC and spectral techniques (IR and 1H NMR). Cyprene was derivatized to cyprene epoxide by two methods i.e. using perbenzoic acid and epichlorohydrin. Further, the oil, it's polar fraction (dichloromethane), non-polar fraction (hexane), cyprene and cyprene epoxide were screened for their plant growth regulating property in case of wheat seedlings (HD 2967 and PBW 621). Complete germination was observed above 2.5 μg/mL of all the test fractions in both the cultivars. Moreover, cyprene epoxide was found to be the most effective in enhancing the length of roots and shoots. Seedling vigour index was calculated in order to analyze the enhancement shown by the oil and its various components on the seedlings.
