Heep Yunn School ( 協恩中學) Wu Hoi Man ( 胡凱文) Fan Lok Yan ( 范樂欣) Hui Yuet Man ( 許悅敏) Tang Tsz Kwan ( 鄧紫君) Cheung Man Ying ( 張敏盈) Greener Epoxidation chemistry IN water
Dioxirane epoxidation • Epoxidation is an important step in making drugs Epoxide Alkene eg. Triptolide Dioxirane epoxidation (in water- organic solvent)
Objectives 1. Generalize the best system 2. Find key factors affecting two-phase reaction 3. Find a greener way to conduct epoxidation
1.Organic solvent: Acetonitrile 2.Ketone (catalyst): 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone 3.Additive in water: EDTA 8.pH of water = 9 6.Substrate : oxidizing agent 1 : 2 4.Substrate : catalyst 1 : 1 7.Temperature: 10 °C 5.Water : organic solvent 1 : 1.1 Conclusion Novel epoxidation method CH3COCF3 , pH 9 Oxone 10 °C CH3CN /Water,
Conclusion Proportion of water as solvent 36 % Ketone (catalyst) 90%
