(E)-N'-(2,3-Dihy-droxy-benzyl-idene)-4-meth-oxy-benzohydrazide
Abstract:
The mol-ecule of the title benzohydrazide derivative, C(15)H(14)N(2)O(4), is twisted and exists in a trans conformation with respect to the C=N double bond. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 56.86 (9)° and the C atom of the meth-oxy group deviates slightly [C-O-C-C = -10.4 (3)°] from its attached benzene ring. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and bifurcated N-H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds, as well as weak C-H⋯O inter-actions, into two-dimensional networks lying parallel to the bc plane. A weak C-H⋯π inter-action also occurs.

Preparation of Epoxides
Epoxides result from alkene oxidation, which can be achieved by a) air, b) peroxy acids, c) hypochlorous acids, and d) halohydrin cyclization.
Epoxidation with Peroxy Acids
Epoxidation of alkenes via oxidation with peroxy acids involves the conversion of a carbon–carbon double bond to an epoxide using the oxidizing agent meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, commonly known as MCPBA. Since the O–O bond of peroxy acids is very weak, the addition of electrophilic oxygen of peroxy acids to...
