Yield:50 % ee

Reaction Conditions:

with tert.-butylhydroperoxide;lanthanum(III) isopropoxide;(R)-1,1'-Bi-2-naphthol;Triphenylphosphine oxide in tetrahydrofuran;toluene at 30; for 96 h;Molecular sieve;Inert atmosphere;Schlenk technique;Overall yield = 29 %; enantioselective reaction;Reagent/catalyst;

Steps:

General procedure for the catalytic asymmetric homogeneous epoxidations of enones

General procedure: Under an argon atmosphere, a Schlenk flask was charged with pre-dried 4? molecular sieves (400.0 mg), the ligand (0.05 mmol), Ln(OiPr)3 (0.05 mmol), Ph3P(O) (84.0 mg, 0.30 mmol) and THF (0.75 mL) freshly distilled on Na/benzophenone. The solution was stirred for 1 hour at 30°C. Then, a solution of anhydrous TBHP (215 μL, 1.00 mmol, 4.7 M in toluene) was added. After stirring at 30°C for 1 hour, enone (0.50 mmol) was added. Stirring was maintained at 30°C for 2 to 7 days. Then, the reaction mixture was hydrolyzed with a saturated NH4Cl solution, the organic phase was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The conversion and the enantiomeric excesses were determined by HPLC. HPLC analysis of trans-epoxy-1,3-diphenylpropan-1-one, tR = 87.5 min (2S,3R)-isomer (major) and 91.0 min (2R,3S)-isomer (minor). HPLC analysis of trans-epoxy-4-phenylbutan-2-one, tR = 42.0 min (3R,4S)-isomer (minor) and 50.0 min (3S,4R)-isomer (major).
