DEFINITION

Classification: 549/520

(under subclass 518) Processes wherein (1) a halchydrin (X=halogen) is dehydrohalogenated to form an oxirane ring or (2) a hypohalite or hypohalous acid reacts with an ethylenically unsaturated compound at the site of ethylenic unsaturation.

(1) Note. The hypohalite or hypohalous acid may be formed in situ, e.g., from X2 and H2O.
