Title: Catalytic enantioselective epoxidation of tertiary allylic and homoallylic alcohols. Author: Olivares-Romero JL, Li Z, Yamamoto H. Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2013 Mar 06; 135(9):3411-3. PubMed ID: 23406082. Abstract: An efficient and versatile method for the enantioselective epoxidation of both tertiary allylic and homoallylic alcohols catalyzed by Hf(IV)-bishydroxamic acid (BHA) complexes is described. Asymmetric epoxidation, kinetic resolution, and desymmetrization have been developed, demonstrating the flexible nature of the Hf(IV)-BHA system. This is the first report in which these substrates were obtained with enantioselectivities of up to 99%.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
