Abstract
The kinetic resolution of tertiary hydroperoxides via catalytic Sharpl ess epoxidation with various allylic alcohols has been investigated. B y using 1-cyclohexyl-1-phenylethyl hydroperoxide an enantiomeric exces s (e.e.) of up to 29 % of the resolved hydroperoxide has been observed at a consumption of the racemic hydroperoxide of nearly 50 %. The e.e . can be increased, however, only by raising the hydroperoxide consump tion.
