11. This leads to syn addition of the resulting epoxide . 12. I was looking at the synthesis of epoxides and also epoxide # reactions. 13. Reaction conditions may also affect the yields of carbonyl product and epoxide product. 14. Subsequent oxidation is followed by a proposed dioxygenase mechanism that leads to epoxide formation. 15. Glycidamide is a reactive epoxide metabolite from acrylamide. 16. Heptachlor epoxide is more likely to be found in the environment than its parent compound. 17. Oxidation of TCNE with hydrogen peroxide gives the corresponding epoxide , which has unusual properties. 18. This monounsaturated long chain carboxylic acid contains an epoxide and consists of two optical isomers. 19. Therefore, an epoxide is not required. 20. In the next step, O 2 is cleaved with the formation of an epoxide .
