Abstract
Asymmetric oxidation of sulfides was examined by using (salen) mangane se(III) complexes as catalysts and (8S,8'S,1''S,2''S)complex (3b) was found to show high asymmetric induction up to 90% ee. To be interested , however, (8R,8'R,1''S,2''S)complex (1a) that showed excellent asymme tric induction in the epoxidation of simple olefins was a poor catalys t for the oxidation of sulfides.
