A catalytic asymmetric synthesis of chiral glycidic acid derivatives through chiral dioxirane-mediated catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of cinnamic acid derivatives.

TL;DR: Higher enantioselectivities in the asymmetric epoxidation of ( E)-cinnamates than that of (E)-stilbene derivatives were observed and were proposed to be attributed to a dipole-dipole repulsion between oxygen atoms of an ester group in the cinnamate and those of the lactone moieties in the binaphthyl dioxirane.

Enantioselective epoxidation of alkenes catalyzed by 2-fluoro-N-carbethoxytropinone and related tropinone derivatives.

TL;DR: Several alpha-substituted N-carbethoxytropinones have been evaluated as catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation of alkenes with Oxone, via a dioxirane intermediate and the alpha-acetoxy derivative 7 affords the highest enantioselectivities.

Asymmetric epoxidation of cis-alkenes mediated by iminium salts: highly enantioselective synthesis of levcromakalim.

TL;DR: A range of cis-substituted olefins has been epoxidized with a new dihydroisoquinolinium salt catalyst, using tetraphenylphosphonium monoperoxysulfate as the stoichiometric oxidant, giving ee's of up to 97%.

A Class of C2 and Pseudo C2 Symmetric Ketone Catalysts for Asymmetric Epoxidation. Conformational Effect on Catalysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a class of C2 and pseudo C2 symmetric ketones with one fused ring at each side of the carbonyl group have been prepared from quinic acid and found to be effective catalysts for the asymmetric epoxidation of a variety of olefins.
