Synthesis of 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane from 1,3-butadiene monoxide

The possibility of producing 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane by the epoxidation of 1,3-butadiene monoxide with tert-butylhydroperoxide has been demonstrated. The factors complicating the production and isolation of the target product have been studied. As an alternative to 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane, the synthesis of 1,2,4,5-diepoxypentane is proposed.
