Abstract
Here, we report an efficient iron complex $[((phen){_2}(H_2O)Fe^{III}){_2}({\mu}-O)](ClO_4){_4}$, that can rapidly epoxidize 1,3-butadiene at $-10^{\circ}C$ with low catalyst loadings by using commercially available peracetic acid as an oxidant. The main aspect of our study is to investigate the effect of temperature (from -10 to $-40^{\circ}C$) and time on the epoxidation reaction. The epoxidation reaction was fast and almost completed within 5 min at temperatures above $-20^{\circ}C$, whereas it became slow at temperatures below $-20^{\circ}C$. The yield of butadiene monoepoxide (BMO)increased with increasing the reaction time. Generally, when the more butadiene was used, the higher yield was obtained. The highest yield of BMO was 90%.
