PROCESS FOR THE EPOXIDATION OF OLEFINIC COMPOUNDS

摘要

A process for the epoxidation of olefinic compounds, consisting of reacting said compounds with hydrogen peroxide either introduced as such or produced by substances capable of generating it under the reaction conditions, in the presence of synthetic zeolites containing titanium atoms, of general formula: xTiO2.(1-x)SiO2, where x lies between 0.0001 and 0.04, and possibly in the presence of one or more solvents, operating at a temperature of between 0 DEG and 150 DEG C., and at a pressure of between 1 and 100 ata.
