Alkene Epoxidation Reaction Mechanism - Peroxy Acid MCPBA

This organic chemistry video tutorial provides the mechanism of the epoxidation reaction of alkene. It provides the arrow pushing drawing that shows how an alkene converts into an epoxide using MCPBA or RCO3H which is a peroxy acid. This video also shows you how another way of making an epoxide using the halohydrin formation reaction mechanism followed by base catalyzed elimination of the halide. Following this, the video provides the mechanism of the anti hydroxylation of an epoxide to form a trans diol.
