A new methodology has been developed for the catalytic epoxidation of cyclic vinylsilanes using a ruthenium(II) bisoxazoline complex 2 with molecular oxygen. An attempt has been made to understand the role of -SiMe3 group on the rate of epoxidation process.

Epoxidation of acyclic vinylsilanes by dimethyldioxirane affords α,β-epoxysilanes in high yields, whereas for cyclic vinylsilanes appreciable amounts of allylic oxidation is observed.These competitive pathways become more pronounced, when the reactivity of the double bond is decreased by electronic and/or steric factors.
