Epoxides are an important class of industrial chemicals that have been used as chemical intermediates. Catalytic epoxidation olefins affords interesting production technology. We found a widely usable green route to the epoxides: A silicotungstate compound, [gamma-SiW10O34(H2O)2]4-, is synthesized by protonation divacant, lacunary, Keggin-type polyoxometalate [gamma-SiW10O36]8- and exhibits high catalytic performance for various olefins, including propylene, with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)...
