An expeditious enantioselective synthesis of methyl trans-chrysanthemate

Methyl trans-chrysanthemate has been prepared in few steps from isopropylidenediphenylsulfurane and methyl (E)-3-(3,3-dimethyloxiran-2-yl)prop-2-enoate. The latter was obtained from methyl 4-oxobutenoate or 3-methylbut-2-en-1-ol. The Sharpless catalytic epoxidation reaction allows an asymmetric version of this transformation.

Asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by a spiro-pyrrolidine-derived organocatalyst

The asymmetric epoxidation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, catalyzed by a spiro-pyrrolidine (SPD)-derived organocatalyst, has been accomplished with good diastereoselectivities (up to dr >20:1) and with high to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).
