Abstract
This chapter covers the recent literature dealing with the synthesis of both natural products and drugs whose synthesis has been developed through stereoselective oxidation steps mediated by chiral metal catalysts. In particular, asymmetric epoxidation, dihydroxylation, Baeyer‐Villiger, and secondary alcohol oxidative kinetic resolution are described. For the different target molecules, a brief discussion of the pharmacological properties is given, and for selected examples, a typical experimental procedure for the synthesis and isolation is reported.
