Enolesters can be epoxidized with high enantioselectivities using the fructose-derived chiral ketone 1 as catalyst and Oxone as oxidant. A detailed study of enantiomerically enriched enolesterepoxides has revealed that the acid-catalyzedrearrangement can proceed through two distinct pathways, one with retention of configuration and the other with inversion. The competition between the two pathways

enol ester epoxides via a chiral Lewis acid catalyzed rearrangement. Both enantiomerically enriched enol ester epoxides and alpha-acyloxy ketones can be obtained through this resolution. A positive nonlinear effect is observed in this process. By taking advantage of the mechanistic duality in acid-catalyzed enol ester epoxide rearrangement, we can completely convert a racemic enol ester epoxide into an

A mixture of 9-amino-(9-deoxy) epi-dihydroquinidine and salicylic acid was able to promote the direct reaction of various cyclohexanones with dibenzoyl peroxide, thus affording the corresponding protected alpha-hydroxy carbonyl compounds in high yield and enantioselectivity. Interestingly the same catalytic salt was found to be active when 1-indanones derivatives were directly employed in the reaction with dibenzoyl peroxide furnishing chiral 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl benzoates in high yields and enantioselectivity. Furthermore their treatment with NaBH4 gives easy access to the corresponding enantioenriched 1,2-diols in high yields and without any loss of stereoselectivity.
