A practical method for the multigram scale selective cis-dihydroxylation of electron deficient alkenes such as diethyl fumarate and N-alkyl and N-aryl-maleimides using H2O2 is described. High turnovers (>1000) can be achieved with this efficient manganese based catalyst system, prepared in situ from a manganese salt, pyridine-2-carboxylic acid, a ketone and a base, under ambient conditions. Under optimized conditions, for diethyl fumarate at least 1000 turnovers could be achieved with only 1.5 equiv. of H2O2 with d/l-diethyl tartrate (cis-diol product) as the sole product. For electron rich alkenes, such as cis-cyclooctene, this catalyst provides for efficient epoxidation.

The invention relates to a malodour reducing composition comprising: A) at least one phenylglycidate of formula (1): wherein: - R1 is a C1-C4 branched or linear alkyl group, - R2 is hydrogen or methyl, and - R3 is hydrogen, a C1-C4 branched or linear alkyl group or a methoxy group, and B) at least one 1,2 diketone of formula (2) or (3): wherein: - R4, R5 and R7 may be independently, a C1-C5 linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl group; - R6 is a (C1-C5) alkylidene; - R4 and R5 may also form a C4-C7 saturated or unsaturated alicyclic or heterocyclic ring structure, optionally substituted by (C1-C4) alkyl groups; - R6 and R7 may also form a C4-C7 unsaturated, alicyclic or heterocyclic ring structure optionally substituted by (C1-C4) alkyl groups; the weight ratio of glycidate A to 1,2 diketone B being from 1:99 to 99:1. The invention also relates to the fragrance compositions and consumer products containing this malodour reducing composition.

In this paper an analysis of the factors responsible for discrimination among differing structures of organic reagents by the microcrystalline structure of solids is presented.As a vehicle of this study, the epoxide synthesis using three sulfur ylide precursors (sulfonium and sulfoxonium salts) and four microcrystalline solids was investigated.Neither the surface area nor the number of active sites at the solid surface control the epoxide yield.It appears that the cell lattice of the solid determines the ylide structure, its nucleophilicity, and thus the reaction yield.
