TL;DR: In this article, N-alkyl imidazolems were used to achieve highly enantioselective epoxidation of olefins by combined use of molecular oxygen and pivalaldehyde with optically active Mn(III)-salen type catalysts.
Abstract: N-Alkyl imidazoles are effective axial ligands to achieve highly enantioselective epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins by combined use of molecular oxygen and pivalaldehyde with optically active Mn(III)-salen-type complex catalysts. In the presence of N-alkyl imidazole, the epoxidation of 2,2-dimethylchromene proceeded smoothly to afford the corresponding optically active epoxide in 92% enantiomeric excess.

TL;DR: In this paper, an efficient synthesis of acid-sensitive epoxides, such as chromene oxide or epoxide of γ,δ-unsaturated alcohol, was successfully achieved by the oxygenation of corresponding olefins with the combined use of an atmospheric pressure of molecular oxygen and aldoacetal catalyzed by a cobalt(II) complex coordinated with the 1,3-diketone ligand.
Abstract: An efficient synthesis of acid-sensitive epoxides, such as chromene oxide or epoxide of γ,δ-unsaturated alcohol, was successfully achieved by the oxygenation of corresponding olefins with the combined use of an atmospheric pressure of molecular oxygen and aldoacetal catalyzed by a cobalt(II) complex coordinated with the 1,3-diketone ligand. The reactions proceeded under mild and neutral conditions, and the desired epoxides were obtained in good yields. Neither overoxidation nor decomposition of the formed epoxide was observed under the present reaction conditions. Furthermore, various silyl enol ethers and silyl ketene acetals, acid-sensitive compounds, were also smoothly monooxygenated into the corresponding α-hydroxy ketones and α-hydroxy carboxylic acid esters, respectively.
