Epoxidation studies of 2-styrylchromones using Jacobsen’s catalyst and hydrogen peroxide and iodosylbenzene as oxidants

The epoxidation of 2-styrylchromones 2a-h using Jacobsen’s Mn(III)[salen] complex 1 as catalyst is reported for the first time. Several studies were performed using both hydrogen peroxide and iodosylbenzene as oxidants, in order to obtain the α,β-epoxy-2-styrylchromones 3a-h regioselectively. Due to...
