However, as cobalt loading increased, a decreasing trend in epoxide yield was observed, possibly due to equivalent oxidation facilitated by greater coordination of Co 2+ ions at high cobalt loading. 50 Increasing the oxygen pressure from 15–44 psi resulted in the highest yield of limonene epoxides, followed by a decrease at a higher oxygen pressure of 58 psi, likely due to subsequent epoxide oxidation or ring-opening.
