The diiron-substituted silicotungstate γ-SiW10{Fe3+(OH2}2O 386- (schematically shown) is an effective catalyst for the oxygenation of alkenes in homogeneous reaction media with 1 atm of molecular oxygen. For example, a selectivity for cyclooctene oxide of 98% and a turnover number of 10000 were achieved in the epoxidation of cyclooctene. The catalyst is stable under the reaction conditions, and its ability to use molecular oxygen raises the prospect of using it in industrial epoxidation processes.
