Abstract Epoxidations, heteroatom oxidations, and Y‐H insertions constitute the best investigated oxidations by dioxiranes. This article concerns epoxidation of the double bonds in the cumulenes, such as allenes, acetylenes, and arenes; the oxidation of heteroatom functionalities, mainly lone pairs on sulfur, on nitrogen, and on oxygen as the deoxygenation of N‐ oxides; the oxidation of C = Y functionalities, Y‐H insertions such as in C‐H alkanes, and Si‐H silanes; and the oxidation of organometallic substrates including metal and ligand‐sphere oxidation.
