Abstract

A process is disclosed by which a 1-benzyl-1-hydrocarbyl alkene substrate is catalytically converted to an epoxide. The catalyst is a monoclonal antibody or paratope-containing molecule that binds to the substrate as well as to an N-benzyl-N-hydrocarbylpiperidinium compound that is an analog to the substrate. The chemical reaction is carried out in an aqueous medium using a peroxycarboximic acid as the oxidant.
