Abstract
An .alpha.-olefin oxide is produced with an enhanced reaction selectivity by a method in which an .alpha.-olefin having 6 to 30 carbon atoms is epoxidized in an aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, an acid catalyst, for example, sulfuric acid, and a side reaction-inhibiting agent consisting of a water-soluble neutral salt, for example, sodium sulfate, in an amount of 2 to 30% based on the total weight of the aqueous solution, by an in-situ method, while maintaining the pH of the aqueous solution at a level of 0 to 1, and the resultant reaction product is collected.
