Aryl sulfonic peracids were generated in situ by reaction of corresponding arylsulfonyl imidazolides with H2O2 in alkaline medium.

The former were compared with other epoxidation agents with a variety of olefins. Compared to the arylsulfonyl chloride / KO2 system, aryl sulfonic peracids showed different reactivity and selectivity towards olefins.
