Ketone-directed peracid epoxidation of cyclic alkenes

Ketone carbonyl groups are shown to direct the peracid epoxidation of cyclic alkenes with greater selectivity than that displayed by esters. An 18O labelling study is used to show that a dioxirane intermediate is not involved in these reactions.
