Carbohydrate-derived iminium salt organocatalysts for the asymmetric epoxidation of alkenes
journal contribution
posted on 2015-07-20, 15:38 authored by Philip C. Bulman Page, Yohan Chan, John Liddle, Mark ElsegoodMark ElsegoodA new family of carbohydrate-based dihydroisoquinolinium salts has been prepared and tested for potential as asymmetric catalysts for the epoxidation of unfunctionalized alkene substrates, providing up to 57% ee in the product epoxides.
