The stereochemical course of the oxidation of chiral oxazolidinone-substituted enecarbamates has been studied for singlet oxygen (1O2), dimethyldioxirane (DMD), and m-chloroperbenzoic acid (mCPBA) by examining of the special structural and stereoelectronic features of the enecarbamates. Valuable mechanistic insight into these selective oxidations is gained. Whereas the R1 substituent on the chiral auxiliary is responsible for the steric shielding of the double bond and determines the sense of the π-facial diastereoselectivity, structural characteristic such as the Z/E configuration and the nature of the R 2 group on the double bond are responsible for the extent of the diastereoselectivity. Stereoelectronic steering by the vinylic nitrogen functionality controls the mode selectivity (ene reaction vs [2+2] cycloaddition) in the case of 1O2.
Highly diastereoselective dioxetane formation in the photooxygenation of enecarbamates with an oxazolidinone chiral auxiliary: Steric control in the [2 + 2] cycloaddition of singlet oxygen through conformational alignment

The photooxygenation of oxazolidinone-substituted enecarbamates leads to diastereomerically pure dioxetanes. The high diastereoselectivity is rationalized in terms of effective π-facial control achieved by shielding one side of the double bond with the ch
