If you are not able to make it you should buy it. It is a cheap bulk chemical.

Take an O-Chem class... What is it that you don't understand? What part of the synthesis is problematic? What are your obstacles? Elaborate a bit instead of YELLING your vague inquiries at the whole forum...

Am sorry if I over reacted , all I wanted was another method that will involve mixing of chemical without distillation

So is the problem that you do not have a distillation apparatus? Sadly just mixing things together in a "one-pot" approach will not work in this case.

Slightly off-topic, but on Wikipedia epichlorohydrin is said to be prepared with HOCl and NaOH industrially. Why not MCPBA?

You would need allyl chloride, which I doubt you have

<img src="../scipics/_warn.png" /> <strong>diamond</strong>, one more capslock post and I'll delete this entire topic. <img src="../scipics/_warn.png" />
You've been asked nicely several times. The sheer ignorance and lack of effort displayed in your posts is offense enough, but the capslock...

diamond, the Org. Syn. procedures that sonogashira provided in the first reply are probably your best bet. I doubt you'll find any cheaper or simpler route.

There is no such thing as "hypochloride" (I assume you meant hypochlorite), and we prefer to call it sodium hydroxide (NaOH), rather than the colloquial and somewhat ambiguous term, lye. Regardless, you can't manufacture <em>any</em> organic compound with only NaOH and NaOCl&mdash;that would be alchemy, as there's no carbon! By the way, what do you need <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epichlorohydrin" target="_blank">epichlorohydrin (ECH)</a> <img src="../scipics/_wiki.png" /> for, anyway? Perhaps we could suggest an available alternative, if you supply more information. ECH is pretty nasty stuff (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_704" target="_blank">NFPA 704</a> <img src="../scipics/_wiki.png" /> of 3,3,2), and not something that a non-experienced chemist should attempt to prepare or handle.

Mailinmypocket, comments like that aren't helpful.

kch, it's clear what you meant, but please define acronyms and abbreviations before using them. Non-chemists have a hell of a time trying to understand the conversation, otherwise.

Nobody can help you unless we know what building blocks you have access to. For instance, do you have allyl chloride?

Sciencemadness guidelines #1 and I quote: "On the other extreme, being a professional scientist and a paid researcher does not mean that you can not have honest amateur interests and participate in the discussions. However, in such case avoid abusing SM for solving problems related to your job, problems which you are paid to resolve. Take notice that discussions motivated by commercial interest and greed have no place on an forum for amateurs."

Thanks please how do I convert Allyl chloride to Epichlorohydrin
