Epoxidation of (E,E)-cinnamylideneacetophenones with hydrogen peroxide and iodosylbenzene with salen-mnIII as the catalyst

(E,E)-Cinnamylideneacetophenones 3a–j were epoxidized under mild conditions with Jacobsen’s catalyst 4 and hydrogen peroxide or iodosylbenzene as oxidants. γ,δ-Monoepoxides and a diastereomeric mixture of α,β:γ,δ-diepoxides were obtained in each case, and only the α,β-monoepoxide of 4- nitrocinnamyl...
