 | It has been suggested that Epoxidation with dioxiranes be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since January 2024. |
Oxidation with dioxiranes refers to the introduction of oxygen into organic molecules through the action of a dioxirane. Dioxiranes are well known for their oxidation of alkenes to epoxides; however, they are also able to oxidize other unsaturated functionality, heteroatoms, and alkane C-H bonds.[1]
