Abstract
In situ-formed molybdenum(VI) (oxo-diperoxo) hydroxy acid amide/chiral diol complexes mediate the efficient kinetic resolution of simple ali phatic oxiranes. This method furnishes high enantiomeric yields of the residual oxirane. The oxidative cleavage of the oxiranes to carbonyl compounds is a non-stoichiometric reaction in the presence of oxygen.
