Chiral (salen)Mn(III)Cl complexes catalyze epoxidation of cyclic 1,3-dienes with moderate-to-good enantioselectivity. A new catalyst (2), bearing sterically hindered and electron donating (OSi(iPr)3 (OTIPS) substituents, induces up to 12% higher selectivity than the previously-reported tert-butyl substituted analog 1.
