Cis; no, product A Product B: no cis Alkenes can be converted to oxiranes via two common processes: Reaction with peroxyacids and Halohydrin formation followed by base reaction
The result has the same stereochemistry as the alkene since the reaction with a peroxyacid is a syn addition. The final product is cis-2,3-diethyloxirane because the initial alkene is cis.
The product possesses an internal plane of symmetry, which makes it optically inactive. The polarized light plane won't rotate as a result.
A cyclic halonium ion is used to carry out the process of halogenating the alkene. A cis alkene produces a cis epoxide because the backside displacement of the halide ion by the alkoxide is also stereospecific.
Cis-2,3-diethyloxirane is the item.
