Synthetic applications of chiral unsaturated epoxy alcohols prepared by sharpless asymmetric epoxidation

An overview of the synthesis and applications of chiral 2,3-epoxy alcohols containing unsaturated chains is presented. One of the fundamental synthetic routes to these compounds is Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, which is reliable, highly chemoselective and enables easy prediction of the product e...

description An overview of the synthesis and applications of chiral 2,3-epoxy alcohols containing unsaturated chains is presented.
