β-ethylallyl--ethyl acrylate.

STUDY OF THE CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF Mo2B IN THE REACTION OF β-ETHYL ALLYL-α-ETHYL ACRYLATE WITH tert-BUTYL HYDROPEROXIDE

Kinetic regularities of catalyst activation processes in the reaction of epoxidation of ethylallyl ethyl acrylate with tert-butyl hydroperoxide in the presence of Mo2B were investigated. It is shown that the activation of the catalyst, which takes place at the beginning of the epoxidation process, mainly occurs under the simultaneous action of tert-butyl hydroperoxide and olefin.
