(a)
Interpretation: The major product in the reaction needs to be identified.
Concept introduction: The problem is based on the concept of enantioselective epoxidation. In this process, if a chiral
Here for enantioselective epoxidation of allylic alcohols where the hydroxyl group is attached to the allylic position which is next to a C-C double bond, a catalyst is developed. This catalyst contains titanium tetraisopropoxide and enantiomer of diethyl tartrate.
