The title cyclic guanidine (4a) is an efficient promoter of enone epoxidation by tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Optimisation studies are reported and the procedure applied to cyclic and acyclic ketones, quinones and naphthoquinones. N-Substituted guanidine (4c) proved best for the epoxidation of 2-amidobenzoquinones. Preliminary asymmetric epoxidation studies are also discussed.
