Concept introduction:

Preparation of epoxide- Epoxides can be prepared using peroxy acids. Alkenes are starting material in the preparation of epoxides with peroxy acids. Here, the general reaction is represented as follows:

  ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (LL)-W/WILEYPLUS, Chapter 13.8, Problem 14ATS , additional homework tip  2

Peroxy acids generally used in this process are MCPBA and peroxyacetic acid. The formation of epoxide via peroxy acid is a stereospecific process; thus, cis substituents in alkene (starting material) remain at cis to each other in the epoxide (product). Similarly, trans substituents in alkene remain at trans to each other.

In the decomposition reaction in solution B → C, only species C absorbs UV radiation, but neither B nor the solvent absorbs. If we call At the absorbance measured at any time, A0 the absorbance at the beginning of the reaction, and A∞ the absorbance at the end of the reaction, which of the expressions is valid? We assume that Beer's law is fulfilled.
