Improved procedure for Julia-Colonna asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones: Total synthesis of diltiazem and Taxol side-chain
Poly-L-leucine catalyses the asymmetric epoxidation of enones 1-6 efficiently in a non-aqueous medium to provide the epoxy ketones 7-12 (70-91% yield; 80 to ≥95% ee). The strategy was used to make diltiazem 16 and the Taxol side chain 23 in single enantiomer form.
