Abstract

A systematically varied series of conformationally restricted ketones, readily prepared from N- acetyl-D-glucosamine, were tested against representative olefins as asymmetric epoxidation catalysts showing useful selectivities against terminal olefins and, in particular, typically difficult 2, 2-disubstituted terminal olefins.
