acid (BBHA) complex-catalyzed asymmetricepoxidation of allylicalcohols is described. The optically active binaphthyl-based ligands BBHA 2a and 2b were synthesized from (S)-1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-dicarboxylic acid and N-substituted-O-trimethylsilyl (TMS)-protected hydroxylamines via a one-pot, three-step procedure. The epoxidations of 2,3,3-trisubstituted allylicalcohols using the vanadium complex of
