Abstract
The tricarbonyl complex CpMo(CO) 3 Cl was found to act as a precatalyst for the reaction of tert-butyl hydroperoxide and olefins to yield the corresponding epoxides and diols. Under the reaction conditions, oxidative decarbonylation leads to the formation of the dioxo complex CpMOO 2 Cl. The catalytic recyclability and the effect of temperature on the catalytic results have been examined, and a reaction mechanism proposed, supported by kinetic modelling.
