Tungsten-Catalyzed Asymmetric Epoxidation of Allylic and Homoallylic Alcohols with Hydrogen Peroxide

[Image: see text] A simple, efficient, and environmentally friendly asymmetric epoxidation of primary, secondary, tertiary allylic, and homoallylic alcohols has been accomplished. This process was promoted by a tungsten–bishydroxamic acid complex at room temperature with the use of aqueous 30% H(2)O...

Sumario:[Image: see text] A simple, efficient, and environmentally friendly asymmetric epoxidation of primary, secondary, tertiary allylic, and homoallylic alcohols has been accomplished. This process was promoted by a tungsten–bishydroxamic acid complex at room temperature with the use of aqueous 30% H(2)O(2) as oxidant, yielding the products in 84–98% ee.
