Abstract
Epoxidation has long been an important synthetic transformation in synthetic chemistry. This represents the first direct formation of α,β-epoxy aldehydes which, importantly, was achieved under simple and mild conditions. Hydrogen peroxide was found to be the oxidant of choice while t-BuOOH, cumene hydroperoxide, and urea hydrogen peroxide gave similar results, but m-CPBA gave almost no conversion (< 3%).
