Asymmetric epoxidation of conjugated dienes and enynes catalyzed by (salen)Mn(II) coplex I takes place with high chemoselectivity to afford monoepoxides exclusively.Reactions of cis-enynes proceed with very high levels of asymmetric induction, with trans-alkynyl epoxides as the major products.

diisobutyltelluronium bromide (1), after being treated with alkyl- or aryllithium reagent, undergoes a lithium-tellurium exchange reaction via an unstable transient tetraorganyltellurium intermediate, and the in situ generated lithium species react with carbonyl compounds to give (trimethylsilyl)propargyl alcohols 2 in high yields with high regioselectivity.However, when the telluronium salt 1 was treated with nonnucleophilic bases such as LDA or lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide, the moderately stabilized silylated telluronium ylide formed.The silylated telluronium ylide reacted with carbonyl compounds to afford (trimethylsilyl)alkynyl epoxides 11 in good to excellent yields with high cis stereoselectivity.

Diisobutyltelluronium trimethylsilylpropynyl ylide, generated from 3-trimethylsilylprop-2-ynyldiisobutyltelluronium bromide with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide (LiTMP), reacts with carbonyl compounds to afford predominately cis-trimethylsilylethynyl epoxides in good to excellent yields.
