Abstract
Template directed reaction of dialdehydes and (R,R)- or (S,S)-1,2-diaminocy clohexane affords a practical route to chiral, metal-free macrocyclic salen dimers which have a novel calixarene-like structure and show catalytic act ivity for enantioselective epoxidation of unfunctionalized alkenes in the p resence of Mn-III-NaOCl (aq.).
