TOWARDS A MECHANISTIC INSIGHT INTO THE JULIA-COLONNA ASYMMETRIC EPOXIDATION OF ALPHA-UNSATURATED, BETA-UNSATURATED KETONES USING DISCRETE LENGTHS OF POLY-LEUCINE
Pa. Bentley et al., TOWARDS A MECHANISTIC INSIGHT INTO THE JULIA-COLONNA ASYMMETRIC EPOXIDATION OF ALPHA-UNSATURATED, BETA-UNSATURATED KETONES USING DISCRETE LENGTHS OF POLY-LEUCINE, Tetrahedron letters, 39(50), 1998, pp. 9297-9300
Accurate length poly-leucines have been used to evaluate mechanistic f
eatures of the asymmetric epoxidation of chalcone. Studies have been d
irected towards the influence of the length of the chain, the stereoch
emistry of the amino acid residues and the nature of the terminal amin
o group. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd, All rights reserved.
