Epoxidation of olefins is catalysed by oxovanadium(IV) complexes using 70percent t-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant.Competitive epoxidation of cycloolefins follows the order: norbornene > cycloheptene > cyclohexene.EPR spectra show that the coordination of hydroperoxide to metal center takes place during epoxidation.
