The regioselectivity for the intrazeolite photooxygenation of several trisubstituted alkenes with geminal dimethyl groups was examined. The length of the alkyl chain at the lone position was varied, and as end groups, the phenyl or the cyclohexyl functionalities were chosen. The general trend for all alkenes is a significant increase of the reactivity at the twin position compared to the photooxygenation in solution. For the cyclohexyl-substituted alkenes, it was found that the regioselectivity is nearly independent of the alkyl chain length. However, for the phenyl-substituted alkenes, the ene reactivity of the allylic methylene hydrogen atoms at the lone position and the twix/twin regioselectivity depend significantly on the distance of the phenyl group from the double bond. These trends are discussed in terms of cation-π interactions and conformational effects. Intramolecular and intermolecular isotope effects in the intrazeolite photooxygenation of deuterium-labeled alkenes suggest that a perepoxide-type intermediate is formed in the rate-determining step. Type I photooxygenation that involves reaction of the radical cations of the alkenes with superoxide ion are unlikely.

The inverse α- and β-secondary isotope effects found for the epoxidation reaction of dimethyl dioxirane (DMD) with alkenes support a non polar concerted mechanism.
