Chemo- and diastereoselective epoxidation of allylic alcohols can be performed by t-butyl hydroperoxide in the presence of easily accessible, polymeric titanium(IV) glycolates under heterogeneous conditions. No lowering of the activity of the recovered catalyst is observed after 3 cycles of epoxidation.
