The reactions of 2,3-epoxyaldehydes with methoxymethylenetriphenylphosphorane in tetrahydrofuran provide directly (E)-4-hydroxy-2-enals with the retention of configuration.

Using cinchona alkaloid-derived primary amines as catalysts and aqueous hydrogenperoxide as the oxidant, we have developed highly enantioselective Weitz-Scheffer-type epoxidation and hydroperoxidation reactions of α,β-unsaturated carbonylcompounds (up to 99.5:0.5 er). In this article, we present our full studies on this family of reactions, employing acyclic enones, 5-15-membered cyclic enones, and

Two sides of the same coin: Syn and anti 1,4‐diols have been synthesized through the regio‐ and diastereoselective CuI‐catalyzed boration of allylicepoxides (see scheme; pin=pinacolato, TES=triethylsilyl). In situ protection of the alcohol allows isolation of syn and anti 1,4‐silyloxyboronates. Monoprotected 1,4‐diols can be prepared by a one‐pot addition–protection–oxidation sequence.
