Pyrenediones (PYDs) are efficient photocatalysts for three oxygenation reactions: Epoxidation of electron deficient olefins, oxidative hydroxylation of organoborons, and oxidation of sulfides via in situ generation of H2O2 under visible light irradiation, using oxygen as a terminal oxidant and IPA as a solvent and a hydrogen donor.

An elegant approach for the rapid synthesis of β-cyanoepoxides 3 by the epoxidation of β-cyanostyrenes 1 with PIDA 2a is described. The epoxidation of β-cyanostyrenes 1 was performed with 1.2 equiv. of PIDA 2a in MeCN-H2O (1:1) at room temperature in ultrasonic bath. The epoxidation reactions were completed in short reaction time and β-cyanoepoxides 3 were isolated in 69–94% yields.

A novel class of synthetically important glycidic esters has been obtained via an asymmetric epoxidation of trans-α-cyano-α,β-unsaturated esters catalysed by a multifunctional Cinchona alkaloid-derived thiourea/tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) system. The glycidic esters, isolated in excellent yield with complete trans-diastereocontrol and high enantioselectivity, proved to be versatile building blocks to access challenging small targets bearing a quaternary stereocenter. (Figure presented.).
