Abstract
Irradiation with visible light of a mixture of an alkene in degassed aqueous acetonitrile containing tetraphenylporphyrinantimony(V) as a sensitizer, methylviologen as an electron acceptor, and hydroxide ion, induced epoxidation of the alkene accompanied by hydrogen evolution, with water acting as the electron donor.Keywords
