Highly effective epoxidation of alkenes with Ti-containing soluble polymers.
Ti-containing polysiloxane epoxidation catalysts have been prepared by controlled hydrolysis of titanium- and alkylsilane precursors. These polysilkoxanes exhibit very high yields to epoxides in the epoxidation reaction of primary alkenes with organic hydroproxides.
