Abstract
Epoxidation of 4-methyl-5-(triethylsilyl)oxyallyl alcohol system with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) has been found to occur highly ster eoselectively and in high yields from the opposite side of the C-5 tri ethylsilyloxy group regardless of the stereochemistry of an adjacent m ethyl group.
