Abstract

Abstract The asymmetric catalytic epoxidation of various unfunctionalized alkyl and aryl alkenes has been accomplished using the new C 2 -symmetrical 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-dimethylene-bridged ansa -Bis(1-indenyl)titanium dichloride complex. Enantiomeric excesses of 22% and activities up to 61 turnovers were observed using the (R)(−)-BpDM-(1-ind) 2 TiCl 2 catalyst.
