Abstract: A METHOD OF PRODUCING AN EPOXIDE OF THE FORMULA:

2-R1,2-R2,3-R3,3-R4-OXIRANE OR 2,3-(-R5-)OXIRANE

WHERE R1, R2, R3 AND R4 ARE HYDROGEN OR HYDROCARBYL AND R5 IS X,$-ALKYLENE COMPRISING CONTACTING A FIRST OLEFIN OF THE FORMULA:

R1-C(-R2)=C(-R3)-R4 OR R5
WHERE R1 THROUGH R5 IS AS HERETOFORE DEFINED WITH AN ALKOXYHYDROPEROXIDE OF THE FORMULA:

R6-C(-R7)(-O-OH)-O-R10 AND/OR R8-C(-R9)(-O-OH)-O-R10

WHERE R6, R7, R8 AND R9 ARE HYDROGEN OR HYDROCARBYL IN THE PRESENCE OF A MOLYBDENUM, TUNGSTEN OR VANADIUM EPOXIDE PRODUCING CATALYST, SAID HYDROPEROXIDE PREPARED BY CONTACTING A MIXTURE OF A SECOND OLEFIN OF THE FORMULA:

R6R7C=CR8R9

WHERE R6 R7, R8 AND R9 ARE AS HERETOFORE DEFINED, AND AN ALKANOL OF THE FORMULA R10OH WHERE R10 IS ALKYL WITH OZONE.
