Abstract
The products obtained by treating methyl sorbate with monoperphthalic acid under various conditions were studied by chemical and spectroscopic procedures. From the results of chemical tests and spectroscopic observations in the infrared and ultraviolet regions, it was inferred that the product in all cases is methyl trans-4, 5-epoxy-trans-2-hexenoate. This inference was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy.
