Chapter 10, Problem 10.70P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A synthesis of each epoxide (B and C) from alcohol A is to be devised.

Concept introduction: Epoxidation (or oxirane synthesis) is a chemical reaction in which an alkene in reacted with peroxide to give an epoxide. An epoxide is a cyclic ether with a three-atom ring having an equilateral triangle structure. Since, the three membered ring is highly strained (Baeyer strain), many epoxides and highly reactive towards various nucleophiles such as amines, alcohols, water etc.,
