The reaction mechanism for an alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone to react with basic peroxide to form an epoxide is shown below with a general ketone. The basic hydroxide is used to deprotonate the peroxide molecule to create a strong HOO- nucleophile. The peroxide then attacks the beta-carbon of the alkene and this pushes the electrons up to the oxygen of the carbonyl. This is the first intermediate that is formed during this reaction.

After the intermediate is formed, the lone pair from the oxygen pushes back down to form the carbonyl once more and this breaks a carbon-carbon bond which attacks the oxygen of the peroxy group, ultimately substituting an -OH group and forming the final epoxide ketone product.

The germ theory of disease eventually led to the development of _______.
a_sh-v [17]

The germ theory of disease eventually led to the development of certain types of vaccines. This theory explains that specific type or types of microorganisms, which are bacteria, virus, fungi, or protest species, cause some diseases. These organisms can enter the human body, and can even grow and reproduce, causing infection, inflammation to specific organs in the body, and others. One particular vaccine developed successfully through this understanding is the smallpox vaccine, which is an important vaccine up to this day.
