Catalytic epoxidation of cyclohexene using Molybdenum complexes

Three oxomolybdenum complexes, MoO2(acac)2, MoO2(oxine)2 and MoO2(PDTC)2, were prepared, characterised and essayed as catalysts for the epoxidation of cyclohexene in a batch reactor. The reaction was performed at 60 and 70°C using tert-butylhydroperoxide as oxidant agent and toluene and dichloroetha...
