Abstract
A chiral (salen) manganese (III) complex 1 bearing a sesquiterpene sal icylaldehyde and (RP)-1,2-clohexanediamine moieties has been prepared. This complex catalyses the epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins wi th iodosylbenzene and molecular oxygen/pivalaldehyde as terminal oxida nts. In all cases the chemical yield was high although the enantiomeri c excess obtained were low. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.
