  • Patent number: 6610864
    Abstract: The selective epoxidation of cis double bonds of macrocyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons having 8 to 20 ring carbon atoms occurs by a catalytic process. The macrocyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons may optionally contain one or more side chains and in which at least one further trans double bond is simultaneously present. The used catalyst system consists of a cationic phase-transfer catalyst and an anionic polyoxometallate which is a polytungstate or a polymolybdate. Additionally, it comprises one or more elements selected from germanium, tin, lead, arsenic, antimony, bismuth, selenium, tellurium and polonium, and optionally one or more transition metals from group 4 to 12 of the Periodic Table.
    Type: Grant
