Abstract Epichlorohydrin is an important chemical intermediate with wide and prosperous application.In this paper,the recent progress in the synthesis of epichlorohydrin by direct epoxidation of allyl chloride catalyzed by TiO_2/SiO_2,TS-1 and the modified TS-1 catalysts is introduced.The features and prospect of the different processes are discussed.The difficulties in the research of direct allyl chloride oxidation and the developing trend are pointed out.
