(a)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given compounds in enantiomerically pure form by asymmetric epoxidation is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The Sharpless epoxidation reaction is an enantioselective
(b)
Interpretation:
The synthesis for the given compounds in enantiomerically pure form by asymmetric epoxidation is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The Sharpless epoxidation reaction is an enantioselective chemical reaction to prepare epoxy alcohols from primary and secondary allylic alcohols. The chiral tartrate diester determines the stereochemistry of the resulting epoxide.
