The design of new ligands and transition metal compounds for the oxidation of organic compounds
A review of metal-mediated epoxidation is given. Jacobsen's catalyst and the Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation catalyst are discussed. The origins of enantioselectivity are explained using stereochemical models. Several new salen-type ligands were synthesized based on biphenol and binaphthol. Th...
