Abstract
Intramolecular nucleophilic epoxidation reactions of γ-amino-α,β-unsaturated esters have been studied for the first time with a hydroperoxymethyl group attached to the nitrogen atom. The epoxidation was fast under mild basic conditions and highly anti selective (>20:1) when the alkyl group is small.
Key words
asymmetric synthesis - ring-opening - peroxides - nucleophile - intramolecular epoxidation - amino epoxide
